Sorry about that, I guess I didn't word my thread very well, I meant file sharing between my own computers, not p2p or anything below board. If that wasn't the rule I was breaking, don't really see what else I could have broke, anyways to save some trouble, I'm wondering about setting up file sharing between my 2 computers, a desktop running xp and a laptop running vista

Cheers

That is not what the OP is asking for. Totally different!

The windows File Sharing program is buggy at best. I am not sure it is better with Vista or not but XP is......buggy.

It is going to come down to
A. Patience
B. Google
C. A lot of reading
D. Patience mixed with Google and a lot of reading.

Couple of links to look at:
