Right so im connecting my old xp machine through a wireless router to vista, configured everything on settings including same name so that its linked eg WORKGROUP, switched off firewall but the vista only sees the pc name but it will not connect, says something like after i diagnose it, vista can ping the machine but cannot locate the host or something similar.
can someone please advise how to get through this or give me a guide to start it up again new? all help appreciated
