I've seen several guides on the internet about networking a PC (Windows) with a Mac. I've followed them as much as possible but I'm getting no joy. My setup is as follows;
Windows XP Home with a proper login password just like the tutorials said. I access the internet via a router, to which my Mac is hooked up also. I've set up the network on Windows XP (as far as I can tell it's correctly done), but my MacBook won't acknowledge its existence. I've tried disabling the firewall I use on Windows (something I don't really like doing for obvious reasons), but still no joy. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? I'm pretty stumped and the dozens of other threads I've searched through on these forums have yielded no answers.
