Click to expand...

By default, XP Pro doesn't allow network access to the Windows
directory. You can remove this restriction by disabling simple file
sharing:

1. Open My Computer.
2. Click Tools | Folder Options | View.
3. Scroll to the end of the list of advanced settings.
4. Un-check "Use simple file sharing (Recommended)".
