Old Compaq / Windows XP 192.168.0.21
New Compaq , with keyboard , / Windows VISTA 192.168.0.1

I enabled file sharing for the entire C:Drive on the old computer

The new VISTA computer in" Network and sharing "

sees the old XP computer but
all I can see and open is the

1) old printers
2) Shared documents folder

Why does it not see the contents of the entire old computer

Including the desktop ?

Thank you
