Computer help - Connection

I am trying to pass many files from my laptop to my desktop. The desktop has vista and the laptop xp. I am trying to open a connection between the 2 but i dont know how. Kinda like what they have in dorms. Is that possible or not?

Are you connecting them directly or through a router?

Adjust your shield harmonics to compensate for Vista<->XP fluctuations in the subspace. Try use a matrix re-modulator.

Well, since it's MS, I am assuming the PCs will have to have the same workgroup name in order to see each other (not familiar with Vista). On your XP machine, right click on My Computer and go to Properties. Then click the Computer Name tab and see what it's a member of...usually something like MS Home or Workgroup. Google how to check this under Vista as well.

First off you can't connect a network cable from one computer to another. Both computers must be plugged into a router and both must be in the same Workgroup. It's often easier to use an external hard drive or flash card to transfer the files. But like someone said google adhoc network.

Use a flash drive.

google for file sharing in vista and xp

you have to set up a shared folder, it works a little different depending on if the files you are sharing are on the vista machine or the xp machine

Setting up sharing can be more difficult than crossing the border.

Don't take offense, I'm just lazy. I call everyone south of Texas "mexican".

How about running the network connectivity wizards that come with both operating systems.

That's not laziness, that's ignorance.

Don't forget to reverse the polarity of the flux capacitator!

All jokes aside, right-click on the folder you want to share and share it.

From the other computer, \\[ip address] and enter credentials if necessary. Drag and drop.

Or, you could try \\[ip address]\C$ (or drive_letter$) for administrative shares. You'd have to log in as an admin.

The external hard drive message should still be faster, plus you have a backup.

I tried that but they both would create different ports or wtvr... not sure how to explain.
