From: GoldHawk on 19 Apr 2008 12:18 I have set up a home wireless network with a desktop (running XP Pro) and 3 laptops (2 x XP Home & 1 x Vista Home Premium). All machines can "see" each other and able to access every other PC on the network, except: None of the laptops can explore the desktop. All come up with the same message that the desktop is not accessible. Access is denied and I do not have access permissions. I am running all machines with my user account and full administration rights. I have been through the Microsoft Help and Support but have not found a solution. My guess is that it is some setting in Network Connections on the Desktop that is causing the problem but despite trying various things, I have not got an answer. Any help with this would be much appreciated.
