Hi, Ive recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate on two of my computers.
The old slow one is still running Windows XP Pro SP3.

The problem is, My two 7 computers can see XP fine in the network map, But they cant see it in the network folder.
The XP computer cant see either of the 7 computers in its network folder.

All my networking options are set to allow in 7, and I've installed the the link layer hotfix thing on XP.
Please help me.

You mean the Xp doesn't show up in your default Homegroup?

If so, then that's right cos Homegroup for W7 are only for W7s. Network map is just a fancy way to tell u what is on your network.

No, It doesn't show in the folder "Network"

I don't have a homegroup, it wouldn't work when i tried to set it up:S
