I cannot locate XP "networking" info. on how to set up ONE computer that can handle multiple workstations. In other words, I would like to use a computer using XP in one room and allow family members in another room to access the same computer for e-mail, printing, accessing/saving files on same hard drive, etc. using a "workstation" set-up - second monitor/keyboard cabled to the computer). I am not entirely clear what equipment is required (cables, graphic cards, etc.) and the appropriate steps to set it up in XP. Thanks.
 
1. Open XP's "Help and Support".
2. Type in the word: NETWORKING
3. Hit your Enter key.
4. Click on the tutorial titled:
"What's new for home networking"
