I ppl =) I have 2 computers connected through a router (local network). One of them (mine, a desktop, connected by cable) used to be called \\hintroom (by this time, I was running XP SP2), but then I installed vista and the computer is no longer called by that name. The other one (a notebook, connects to the router through wireless) and is running XP SP2. The problem is: when trying to install some applications I get an error message "can't access \\hintroom\documentos p\Bruno - Os meus docs\As minhas imagens" The thing is: - There never existed such path at my computer (the desktop) but there are some things that make sense in it: - "documentos p" stands for "shared documents" - "Bruno" is the user name for the notebook (the one that has the problem) - "Os meus docs" stands for "My docs" - "As minhas imagens" stands for "My Pictures"/"My Images" I don't know if this is of any relevance, but both setups that caused this (yes, they where only two, so far) where graphic applications (a program for building digital albuns, from Hoffmann, and a Corel plugin, I think) If you guys could please help I would be greatly apreciated best regards hint_54

I didn't install vista yet so I do not know any improvement in communication/networking feature in windows vista. But I'm expereince while install windows xp sp2 and it has some obstacle for me communicate with the other user on the network. This because of the new feature need to be configure its setting to match your networking environment. My suggestion from here you should read about networking feature of windows vista. It might probably have some feature that improve its security feature and make you difficult to communicate with the other client on the network. I think with a proper condition, you will be able to make your windows vista and xp could be able to communicate with each other.

Try to check windows firewall in your computer. Make sure that you configure windows firewall properly on your computer.
