[QUOTE="samuel337, post: 5188, member: 10347"] Well if both computers are connected together via a network (both connected to the router), then all you have to do is share you files on one computer, and they will be accessible on the other computer. To share files on XP, right-click on a folder and goto Sharing & Security, then tick the box and type in a name for the folder on the network. You will also need the computer name so you can access it from the other computer. To get the computer name, goto Control panel, system, computer name tab. It will be displayed there. The other way of sharing folders and files is to use the Network Setup Wizard in XP, which you can open by going to start-all programs-accessories-communications-network setup wizard. Now on your other computer, open up my computer, and in the address box, type \\<computer name> and press enter, replacing <computer name> with the computer name of the other computer. The shared folder should now be displayed. HTH Sam [/QUOTE]
