I hope I'm posting in the right spot. Basically here is my problem, I have two pc's connected through a Lynksys router and both access the internet through that router. Each pc can see each other and browse directories, files, etc. However, when I try to move or copy anything from either pc, I get an error like file is in use or you may not have permissions or something to that effect. It seem to be I'm missing something but I don't know what it could be? Either pc has no password and just boots up into the OS. I use XP Media edition and XP Home. Can someone please help my noob self, Thank you.

On each computer right click on the desk top and create a folder do another right click and enable these folders for sharing.Make sure that both computers have the same computer work group name (home,office ect)reboot both computers when they come back up on one of them drag a picture file or something to the shared folder go to the other computer open up my network and you should see the shared folder open it and you will see what you put in it open the share folder on this computer and you should be able to drag your item to this folder.I hope this helps sometimes it's easier to do than explain.
