Map network drive within two Vista computers

[Guest]

Hi

I am a beginner to Vista. I have three computers (2 desktops - one XP one
Vista and Vista laptop) . Both desktops can see and share files with
problem. Note I use Netgear router.

Now I bought this new laptop and trying to use wireless to connect with my
old computers. I can open files from the Vista desktop to Vista laptop but
not vice versa. It said not accessible. You might not have permssion to use
this network resource.

Please help !! Many thanks.

I would check the firewall first. If that is not issue, then check the permission. this link may help,
