Home network setup..help for a biff

Ok, now I have googled this to death, and read all the help pages but I am still clueless

I have a BT home hub, connected via Ethernet to my main pc, and accessed wirelessly by my laptop, PSP and Wii. This was easy to do

Now, I want to share my printer and music files with my laptop but even using the wizard I seem to be struggling.

Can someone please try and describe how I do this (Peter and Jane style)

I thank you

 

what operating system are you using on both machines?

msr

 

XP SP2

 

Get into the chat room

 

right, done the share printer bit/share files...just cant find them on my laptop?

should I be able to "see" my laptop on my pc?

 

Try logging the lappy out and back in again.

 

they're in chat...bonding

 

no, networking

msr

 

oh very clever...i like what you did there

 

Printing sorted

msr

 

That's the abridged version then?

 

MSR is a PC God.......

It took a while, but I'm now printing alles uber der platz

PS - ive sused out file sharing and how to view em as well!!!!

 

Straight and to the point.

 

So now your ok with viewing all your porn on any computer?

 

I could do that already...it was printing the pictures your not meant to leave on your hard drive that was the problem
