I have two computers running XP. My laptop (XP Pro) is
part of a domain (setup at work). I want to transfer
files to my Desktop (Windows XP media Center).

Can I network these two computers together?

How to access different domain without changing the network settings

To use a laptop to access to different domain without changing the domain
settings, logon local machine (instead of domain) using your domain logon ID
that also are created on your local computer. If it is possible, you may
create the same logon id and password on all domain so that you always are
able to access the domain you are connecting to. Also you may want to create
one batch file like logon.bat with domain logon ID and password to map
network drives.
