Adding a Printer

[Guest]

I've got a new Vista laptop and want to use a printer on an XP network. I
have difficulty in connecting to the network to start with as Vista sees the
other computers sometimes but not others. I even have to re-set the LAN
adapter to even get on the internet. Windows thinks that I'm only going to
connect using a wireless network. Anyway when I eventually do find the
printer I get told there's not enough memory even though nothing else is
running. Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Also, how can one change the
workgroup name from WORKGROUP so that I can match it with the workgroup name
used in the rest of the house (I'm a home user)

I forgot to say I have 1 GB of memory with a Dual Core processor but shared
video (up to 256).
