Network Questions

[Tyguy]

Just a few random questions...

When connected to a home wireless network, how am I able to connect to my other PC and search the contents of the folders?

Is Vista Home able to enter into a Domain?

Does installing Vista Business on a Vista Home machine Upgrade or overwrite?

Thanks in advance....

You enable file and print sharing on the computers. Right click and go to share on the folders you want shared. That should be all you need to do if you have simple file sharing enabled. Otherwise you will need to give security clearance to a specific account or 'everybody' on that folder.

I'm not sure it will give you the option to 'upgrade'. But it should let you do a fresh install.

No, you need Business or Ultimate to join a domain.

You'd have to do a fresh install. You can upgrade to Ultimate with Anytime Upgrade, not sure about the retail disk...

Is there a way to take control of another pc on the network without downloading any 3rd party software, and without doing the invite for help thing?
