Networking & sharing   
I have a wireless network consisting of 4 computers :
A	Main Computer	Desktop Windows Vista HP (connected to router via cable)
B	Desktop Windows Vista HP	Wireless
C	Desktop	Windows XP	Wireless
D	Notebook	Windows Vista Ultimate		Wireless
I had a network running successfully on these computers; however I had to 
replace Computer B with a computer also running Vista HP. I connected the new 
one to the network and although the other computers can see Computer B, they 
cannot access any files from them; also, Computer B can see the other 
computers on the network but cannot aces their files. The message says
 "C" is available but the user account that you are logged on with was 
denied access....Make sure you typed the path correctly and you have 
permission to access the shared folder. Howeber the shared printers work OK 
and Internet acces is avialble on al computers.
The user account and password on all four computers are the same, as are the 
settings in the Network & Sharing Centre.
Please help. Thank you.

Re: Networking & sharing   
Do you have other firewall or security software beside windows firewall?

Re: Networking & sharing   
No, only Windows firewall, which I have not modified.

Re: Networking & sharing   
I just realised that when I got the new computer the computer shop had given 
it my first name. I renamed it to 'Office' in the Control Panel. Should this 
name be changed in the Registry as well? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks

Re: Networking & sharing   
Hi
On each Vista computer log to control Panel/System.
In the center of the system screen you would see the Network
http://www.ezlan.net/vista/vs-sys.jpg
Make the same on all computers (if needed click on Change).
In Win XP right click on the My computer Icon and choose properties the 
Network credentials are in one of the tabs.
http://www.ezlan.net/network/net-name.jpg
When this is done.
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is 
allowed to be shared.

Re: Networking & sharing   
I have gone through and tried all the suggestions to no avail. 
When I set up the network originally, before I got the new desktop, I was 
running Vista, without SP1. When I later upgraded to SP1, the network was not 
affected. However, the new computer came with SP1. Would there be some kind 
of security setting that needs to be addressed? I realise I don't know much 
about it and may be clutching at straws, but am becoming very frustrated with 
this.
Thanks
