Here's how the expert fixes your Vista-related issues
Windows Vista is not networking friendly. I've three computers at home -- two desktops with Windows XP and a recently bought Vista Home laptop. The Windows XP PCs have no issues networking but I can't say the same about the Vista laptop. For all my efforts, Vista just doesn't let me see other desktops.
It's really frustrating to see that something new that is supposed to be faster and more efficient actually isn't. Vista should be a lot simpler and yet when it comes to simple things like "Simple File Sharing," it just isn't so anymore.
However, you cannot blame Vista for this completely as this problem occurs if the Link-Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) Responder component is not installed on the Windows XP-based computer.

any god damn day, but XP is no match to Vista's high security

Your link for LLTD manual download is incorrect. Please give correct link. The link given by you goes to SATA HDD problem

I have 3 XP PCs and 2 Vista Notebooks. in my office, linked by wireless network. All 5 machines can access well to one another. Recently, I bought another HP Vista Notebook. But this machine can't view the 3 XPs on the view map. The other 2 Vista also cannot access to this machine. How am I going to solve this problem? Should I download anything from Microsoft?
