Cannot access Win 7 files from Win XP

[go4saket]

Hello friends!

I have 4 computers attracted to my network through a switch. three having Win XP Pro SP3 and one having Win 7 Ultimate. None of my computers have any password and there's only one user in each computer that has administrator rights without password.

Although I am able to access files of all XP machines from my Win 7 machine, none of the XP systems are able to access any files of Win 7 system. Every time I try to access files of Win 7 system through Win XP system, it asks for a user name and password but because I dont have any password assigned to that machine, I am not able to access it. For trial purpose I gave a password to my Win 7 machine and every thing started working fine but again as soon as I remove the password, the same problem starts.

As I dont want to keep any password, is there a way to access my files in Win 7 system via Win XP system. Please help.

Thank you.

I suggest you type Administrator in the username and let the password box remain empty and press enter.
