Re: Cannot access shared drive from network
Hey guys,

I called microsoft and they told me you can only go so far with windows
vista. The user folder that contains the documents and pics and so forth is
not accsessible in vista because of certain system files. I added everyone to
my permissions and was able to reach the c drive finally, however you can not
get to the "user" folder.
