Access Denied After Creating Workgroup and Sharing Drive and Files

Please direct me to the correct solution. I have spent literally hours
reading posts and I still am clueless here.

I am using Windows XP Home and have set up a Home Network with two desktops
and one laptop. I do have another laptop that I just got that is using
Vista. I have not put it in the network yet.

My problem is: After Sharing the C: Drive and the Folders, I cannot access
the files on any of the computers? What did I do.

How do I go about fixing this problem.

I am connected to the internet through a wireless router utilizing ATT
(BellSouth FastAccess DSL). I have no problem getting to the internet on any
of the computers.

I can print to any of the printers attached to the desktops.

I hope that you can help me figure this out.

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,
