I have 4 computers on a mixed WinXP Pro and Vista network with a linksys wireless router and dsl.
One WinXp machine is plugged directly into the wireless router with Cat5 cable and there is a desktop with a linksys wireless card and 2 laptops.
The workgroup I named Workgroup. Each computer has a unique computer name. The computer that is wired directly to the router is called JOY-DELL.
I can see the other computers and they can see this Dell, but when they try to access it, they get a message access denied. Error Code 0x80070005. The other WinXp machine said that it might not have permission, contact the administrator, etc.
On Joy-Dell, file & printer sharing is enabled. Folders are shared.
They all have AVG Internet Security and I went into the firewall settings and made the linksys router 192.168.0.1 to 25 safe zones, also setting for Small Network. I even at one point disabled the firewalls.
They can ALL get on the internet just fine, which tells me it's something else.
HELP??
Thanks. I'll check back tomorrow - going to go home.

I lost tonight.
