Ok my next problem tonight is a networking issue.

I have an AMD Athlon xp 2500+ with an Asus A7N8X-X m/b and a HP laserjet 3330 printer/fax/copier plugged in to the serial port on my rig which is running Winxp home SP1. I have to use serial because I dont have firewire.

I also have 2 laptops, a compaq Evo N800c and a Dell Latitude both running win2k SP4. I have already enabled "share" on all the cpus for the printer.

I am having difficulty printing from either of the laptops atm. The error is not specific either, just sez that there was an error printing the doc.

Secondly, I can't remember how to access the other cpus from this one. i.e. when I go to network connections, and click the other cpus, it prompts me for a username and password. I swear I cant remember what to put there. Who's username, whos password?
Do I make new ones?

Anyway, any help with either of these would be greatly appreciated

Thank you in advance.
