Here’s the situation. I’m running XP on both my laptop and desktop and have a wireless home network. Up till now I use my laptop to edit photos in PS Elements, but my laptop hard drive is small and getting full of pictures. I want to be able to save/move all those pictures from my laptop to my desktop which has a much larger hard drive (I can even partition it to have a ‘D’ drive if I need to). I also want to be able to edit those same photos on my desktop just like I would if I were on my laptop by using PS Elements that is also installed on my desktop. In other words I need a single universal folder that I can upload/download my photos to and be able to edit them with either machine. My wife uses the laptop a lot and when I get some free time to do some picture editing it never fails that she is using it. Also, my laptop only has a CD burner and trying to back up all my photos will take a lot of CDs whereas my desktop has a DVD burner and backing them up that way would be a lot better. Can this be easily done so that both machines will recognize a “universal” picture folder?

mersonix asked:


Hi, I have 3 desktop computers. 2 Desktop PCs are wireless (with PCI network cards) and the 3rd is Wired. The wired PC is runnning xp along with one of the wireless PCs. The other wireless PC is running vista.

Currently I can’t share files or printers among any of them. How can I file share among them? I have selected what folders to share but the other pcs don’t appear on the network map. I have downloaded the tool for xp pcs to connect to vista pcs.

help.
I have a router, all computers can connect to the internet, the 2 wireless used to be able to connect with each other but now they can’t. Please don’t be overly complicated, i’m not good at networking. Is there a guide for this?

I want to share a broadband connection between 2 PCs (desktop and notebook)?

Expert asked:


It is a Pacenet Cat 5 cable connection (i.e. this cable now comes directly to my desktop LAN card). However, I want to share this with my notebook. What is the easiest way to do this? I am not sure if a Hub would work ? Do these connections work only to a particluar LAN card? (i.e. tied to that LAN card)
I am thinking of buying a hub, but need to be sure, before I spend the money.
Please suggest.

How can I share the printer that is attatched to the base computer and can I also share programs from one computer to the other, and if so, how?
