Disabled both firewalls and win7 still asks me for passwords and I type the user name and password it but it does not accept it. I tried file sharing between my xp machine and my netbook which also has xp and the netbook connected without any username/password. I can access the files that I need from the netbook. I recon its Win7 machine thats playing around.

I setup a win xp virtual machine on the windows 7 machine and it would not connect as well.

Any other ideas or perhaps another forum that maybe able to be to help?
