    Home Networking


    I'm trying to log into my wife computer which is in the bedroom. But it keeps asking me for user name and password. Here is a picture of it. So where do I get this user name and password?

    In order for you to connect to her computer, you need to be on the same group(HOMEGROUP),
    here is a tutorial from this forum that may help you: Homegroup - Create[2]=Networking%20Internet

    Her pc looks like it`s a member of a Domain, not a workgroup.

    And all this has to be set up correctly.

    It`s in Network & Sharing center, right click the network icon at the bottom right to get there.
