hi.
I have Xp pro on Two Fast Desktop machines, connected via Realtek 10/100 Nic's

Both Fresh/Clean Instals

IP on server is set as 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0

IP on client is set as 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0

Network names are both "OURHOME"

Xp firewall is disabled.

When i click on Network connections, then on "OURHOME"
I see both the Computers Ok, so i click on the downstairs machine, Then i see all the shares. Now when i click on any of the shares XP crashes,
(THIS IS ONLY FROM SERVER - CLIENT)
(CLIENT - SERVER Works fine)

both users/pass are set up on both machines, and permissions are set up correct........

ICS is working fine, which i am happy about but tis shares thing if really bugging the hell outta me, i can see the shared drives/folers, but why the hell does XP lockup, then eventually crash?

I have deleted the reg key that is in the post above, on both PC's and its still the same.......also read most the posts here, seems no-one has this crashing Problem....
