Guest Laser_iCE Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Okay, I'm going to make a bunch of assumptions, so here goes; You need to make sure you have shared folders on your PC for starters. You can also share a whole drive if you like, but as long as you have a good firewill that will prevent outside access. (Right click the folder, Sharing and Security... and Share it) Once you've got it shared, then you can open up the stock explorer and type in \\$computername , so for me, I would type in \\Meche . This will then prompt for a user/pass, however, if you haven't done anything, then simply pressing OK should get you through it fine. Enjoy.
