How to connect Laptop to PC? X4nth3r Oct 28th, 09, 09:25 PM #1 (permalink)
I have a laptop running Vista home premium and PC running XP Pro SP2. How do i go about connecting the laptop to the PC so i can transfer some files over? I'm using a 2WIRE router given with the singnet MIO plan. Tried setting both into the same workgroup but have no idea how to transfer the files over.

make sure they're both connected to the same router (workgroup).
share out the file you intend to by right clicking on the folder it's in > sharing & security.

go to the other PC/laptop and open up My Computer.
Type this in the destination field: \\<PC-NAME>
