Hi guys, hope you can help.
I have built a new super comp for Trainz and all is fine,it has Windows 7 H/P, my old comp also runs great and has XP Pro/sp3.
I moved the old comp 2 feet across to my wife's desk and plugged in the Lan wire (im sure thats what it's called) at both ends and tried to connect them up together so the old one can connect to the internet through the new one ( I moved the wifi card from the old into the new) and also to share files between the two as the old one has all my Trainz downloaded CDP files.
Now I know how to run network wizzards on XP, but being brand new to windows7 I don't have a clue and i'm at my wits end trying to get them to see each other if thats even possible.
Any pointers in the right direction or to tutorials would be very much appreciated as my two young daughters were really looking forward to getting back on the internet.
P.S. I did click and try everything in the win7 network connection place, I think?
:wave:
