3 computers - 2 running XP pro, one running XP home.
"Main PC" - XP Home / wired
Second PC - XP Pro / wired
Laptop - XP Pro / wireless
The XP Home PC is my main PC and I've been trying to "share" the My Pictures folder so my wife can access it to get pictures for some promotional materials.
I go to the MyDocuments folder and share the Pictures folder - I see the little hand appear. I check whatever else I can and everything seems OK.
Over to my wife's XP Pro laptop and I don't see it - in the My Computer or in the Network connections.
Hmm.
I pull up my second PC - XP pro since I share a folder with my main PC. main PC and the laptop both see the the shared folder on the second PC.
I check the settings side by side as best as I can and everything seems to check out yet neither the second PC or the laptop will see the pictures.
I even shared the MyDocuments folder and turned off the firewall (temporarily) and neither helped.
Suggestions?
