access deniedI have three computers networked at home. Two are hard wired through the
router and the other (a Laptop) is using a wireless connection. All worked fine, but suddenly I am having problems accessing/transfeting files to and from thelaptop. I get an "access denied" error. I tryed hooking the laptop via/hard wire and i get the same error. When I checked the file sharing of the folder in question, the file sharing check is checked but I do not seem to be able to change that. I am loged in as administrator. Not sure if that has anything to do to it. Hopefuly someone can help. Ian On Sun, 12 Jun 2005 20:11:40 GMT, Ian Winter <*email_address_deleted*> wrote:
