This is more of a computer question, but:
- go to Start - Settings - Control Panel - Network
Connections
- click on either your "Local Area Connection"
(for a wired NIC) or your "Wireless Network
Connection" (for a wireless NIC - the name may be
different as I'm not on a wireless PC right now)
- click on Properties
- in the "This client uses the following items:"
list, locate "File and Printer Sharing for
Microsoft Networks"
- if it's not there, add it by pressing "Install"
- "Service". You may need your Windows XP CD to
install it.
- once you have it in the list, click the check
box and press "OK" at the bottom
Now you should see all your file sharing options.
