    Networking Windows7 and XP

    Windows 7 is more secure than windows xp by default To share a file or folder in Windows In any version of Windows, you can right-click a file or folder, click Share, and then select the people or groups you want to share with. You can also assign permissions so that those people can or cannot make changes to the file or folder you shared. If your network is Not setup Network setup how 2 Step 1 ok you have to decide on password protect your files or not password protect (sercure Mode)= a user name and password on each computer (same name and password for the users on all computers helps a lot) to log in and then have access to the files as long as the computer is on. or open sharing (not secure mode) anyone with a computer on your network can access the files as long as the computer is on. No user name or password is needed Once you have decided on how you will share your files, you can then make sure they are available on the network Step 2 If your network contains computers running different versions of Windows, put all computers in the same workgroup Let's assume that you've already set up the physical network itself. If you haven’t, see What you need to set up a home network. After your network is set up, the next step is to fine-tune it so that all the computers can find each other—something you'll need if you want to share files and printers. If computers running Windows XP are part of your network, it’s important to use the same workgroup name for all of the computers on your network. This makes it possible for computers running different versions of Windows to detect and access each other. Remember that the default workgroup name is not the same in all versions of Windows. To find or change the workgroup name on a computer running Windows XP 1.Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties. 2.In System Properties, click the Computer Name tab to see the workgroup name. To change the name, click Change, type the new name in Computer name, and then click OK. To find the workgroup name on a computer running Windows Vista or Windows 7 1.Open System by clicking the Start button , right-clicking Computer, and then clicking Properties. 2.The workgroup name is displayed under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings. To change the workgroup name on a computer running Windows Vista or Windows 7 1.Open System by clicking the Start button , right-clicking Computer, and then clicking Properties. 2.Under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings, click Change settings. 3.In System Properties, on the Computer Name tab, click Change. 4.In Computer Name/Domain Changes, in Workgroup, type the name of the workgroup you want to use, and then click OK. You will be prompted to restart your computer Step 3 Now make sure file sharing is turned on This is a guide from Microsoft To turn on network discovery, file and printer sharing, and public folder sharing in Windows 7 1.Open Advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click Network and Sharing Center, and then, in the left pane, click Change advanced sharing settings. 2.Click the chevron to expand the Home or Work network profile. 3.Select the options to turn on network discovery and file sharing. 4.Under Public folder sharing, do one of the following: •To share your Public folders so that people on other computers on the network can open files in them but can't create or change files, click Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can open files. •To share your Public folders so that people on other computers on the network can open files in them and also create or change files, click Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can open, change, and create files. Click Save changes. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. I hope this helps you with your network sharing and setup If you have any questions feel free to ask linux Microsoft help links: File Sharing Essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/File-sharing-essentials Networking home computers running different versions of Windows http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Networking-home-computers-running-different-versions-of-Windows

    XP over Windows 7

    fennfamm3 is right when installing windows over windows LOL when asked (during the install process) where to install windows (what drive) click advanced and delete all partitions this will leave only unpartitioned space (aka new hard drive is the same way) now you can create a new partition and then install windows normally windows does not like to install over another windows OS the only other way would be to partition the drive into sections / install more than one operating system and dual boot (xp and win 7) the system. (which is a whole other discussion) /r linux
