Default W8 network to XP?

I can't seem to network to/from my XP machine to/from this new W8
machine. The folders/files on one do not show on the other.
Must be missing something.

Right now the W8 user is passworded. Nut the XP user is not.

Help? Paul?

I have the same problem, also with NAS....
All is ok on win xp, but i don't see win8.
And on win8 I don't see xp and NAS.
The work group is the same.....

HELP US!!!

Thanks

Sam


I created a password (same one as used on the W8 machine) for the XP
user and rebooted. At that point no files/folders on the W8 machine
were available to the XP. But, but, but suddenly the files/folders on
the XP machine became available on the W8 machine. However, no
password was asked for to get that access. Go figure.
