I have just purchased a HP Media Center PC with XP2 and have an older HP PC
with XP2. I also have a router hooked to both PSc to use the DSL internet
connection. Is there someone that can help me with setting up a home network
to move files from the old PC to the new PC? Thanks so much!

Just run the New Network Wizard (Start-My Network Places - and in the left
hand pane click on "Set up a small or home Network" ) on both machines and
that should be all you need.
