Share a files over a network with older versions of Windows

It is really painful to share files and folders over a home network when you're running a newer version of Windows, like Vista or 7 and trying to set the thing up with a machine running XP. Here's a tutorial.

Many people won't know that I have a YouTube channel with a lot of computer related videos. I have discontinued making videos there, but still, I found this one really good tutorial there. Have fun sharing stuff.

I am using Windows XP and Vista here, and sharing entire hard drives.

Good luck. And do have a look at my archive.
