I am trying to network 2 windows 7/64 bit computers with my Vista/32 bit computer. The W7’s are set up as a home group, and the V is currently in WORKGROUP. What do I need to do for all 3 to be able to see, and change all files on any computer? They are set up for no password, top directory is shared, and everyone has total file control.

Hello SaltyDog, and welcome to Seven Forums.

Windows 7 can only be part of a homegroup with another Windows 7 computer, and not with Vista. You should be able to have the Windows 7 computers in the same workgroup as the Vista computer on a work network instead for them to see each other though.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
