Sharing between Windows 7/Windows XP -- going nowhere
Here's my situation...
I've got two computers, one in my bedroom (Windows 7 Professional) and an HTPC in my living room (Windows XP Professional [SP3]). My Win7 PC also has all my data storage and I want to ultimately be able to stream my music and movie collection from that computer on to my Living Room PC (connected to my big screen TV).
These computers are both connected to the same wireless network.
I've gone through all the drives on both systems right clicked, enabled sharing, given full permission, etc.
However, while on the living room XP computer, if I navigate to Network Places, there are no computers to be found. It doesn't even see the Windows 7 system. While on the Windows 7 system, I can see the Windows XP computer and the drives that I've shared, however when I go to certain folders, I get a message that says I don't have permission.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
