XP DOES all you to Network...
are you running Home or Pro

I am using windows XP Home and was told that I cannot log-on our domain through windows xp home. I was told I need windows professional. I was told this because the domain and workgroup our company uses cannot network with xp home. That is why I am try
ing to get advise to take to our computer person to get my laptop up and running but his answer is that it cannot be done.

Are you connecting from home or is your XP machine at work?
