Which version of Windows XP does the desktop have? XP Home Edition doesn't have administrative shares like C$. To enable administrative shares on XP Professional, disable simple file sharing. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Desktop Experience) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.

Is your desktop C$ drive shared? Right-click "My Computer" - Manage - System Tools - Shared Folders - Shares Verify that "C$" is in the "Shared Folder" column. Verify that you are trying to connect with an account with Administrator privilege. Right-click the "C" drive - Properties - Security and make sure the settings allow access. HTH, John |
