Can a computer running windows 7 connect to a windows xp home edition machine?
I just upgraded my desktop to Windows 7 Pro, it will find everything on my wireless network except my laptop running XP home. I have ran through the network setup on both machines & restarted each. I only see how to setup a homegroup which requires W7 on each.
Ich verbesserte gerade mein Schreibtischplatte, Windows 7 Pro, es wird alles in meinem drahtlosen Netzwerk außer mein Laptop mit XP Heim finden. Ich habe lief durch das Netzwerk-Setup auf sowohl Maschinen & jeweils neu gestartet. Ich sehe nur wie eine Heimnetzgruppe setup die W7 auf jedem erfordert.. computer, connect, edition, Home, machine, running, start, Windows, windows 7,

Make sure you have sharing turned on in both computers.

I found this video useful for networking questions I had, and think you might find it interesting as well.
