Re: Cannot access xp files over wireless network from vista pc

the name on a xp network is MSHOME (workgroup )
this is not the case on a vista pc
go into the control panel - system and maintence - system,

change the name from there the workgroup to MSHOME restart the pc and retry,

should be able to connect after that,

also to connect to it, you use \\ ipaddress of pc connectin to \ shared folder name
