Connecting Vista to Windows 2000
Hi, I have a new HP laptop with windows Vista.
I connected it to my wireless network, and even to my iMac sharing its printer. I havenīt been able, however, to connect to my Windows 2000 PC.
They just donīt see each other.
I tried HP support without any result, they said it canīt be done. Any suggestions?

Hi elpana,

please read this page File and Printer Sharing in Windows Vista and follow the instructions and you should be able to connect.

If you have any further problems please let us know.

Let us know how you get on,

regards

Steve

I have already done that, but it doesn't work.
They don't even see each other. Its frustrating that I can see the mac from both computers but not the windows.
They don't even ping.
