@cyco,
hay mate, now that i have a latop and wireless at home, i was lookign at sharing files on my desktop (eg all my music etc) so that its accessable over the network... is this straight forward and easy? i also have a 500 gig external drive that would be ace to share on the network, any easy way of doing this? (bare in mind i have vista now) so im as lost as a polar bear on a desert island
I'd be interested to know how to do that too as I have been trying since I got my Desktop in Feb 2006 and it has never worked properly! even less so since I installed Vista on the Desktop!
just put a network cable between the two computers' and a bit of common sense and you're done!!

AFAIK

WIRELESSLY.....
any plum with a hole can setup a lan with cables
but you can share external harddrives on wireless networks - enabling you to access the data anywhere (within range)......

Lee,
go into windows media player and it should find all the devices on yer network, wired and wireless.
I can't tell you exactly how right now.. or ever in that case because the lappy's at the repairers and there are no other windows machines other than that.
Someone else?

well, i think the hd is partitionated. but the other partition was not created hence you dont see it there.
what can you do? get a xp cd and make it boot while restarting, then, as if you were gonna install xp, you will see that there is a partition left(where windows is not installed), you need to create a partition and then restart.
go to my computer and format the new partition.
hope it helps
