Yep, and as long as I don't need to provide too much "tech support" then I'm happy too :biggrin:

Wondering if someone can help - got the new laptop, trying to copy files over from XP machine but whatever I do I can't get the 7 machine to see the other PCs.

It's seeing them as media servers, but not the computer itself. Does anyone know what I need to do?

Try this, and see if it helps.

are you trying to transfer them via wireless I take it?

Thanks for all that, should have done the obvious before posting that, rebooted my router and now they're all there!

It's been playing up recently so should have realised that was the problem. Really like windows 7, it's quite slick but it's not really that different to vista though is it? Where are the major differences?

behind the scenes mate, on the surface no not much different although UAC is a lot more configurable and 7 doesn't hog resources Smile
