Enabling File Sharing

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

In my new computer (XP operating system) that is on a wireless network, I
would like to enable file sharing. When I go through the wizard it asks me
to create a disk to take to other computers. Unfortunately, when I purchased
this computer, I did not get a floppy drive! Any ideas on how I can create
this file another way? If I can create the file I could burn it on a CD.

Thanks,

Bob

You can save the file to your desktop and then burn it to a CD. Or you can
buy a relative inexpensive USB storage stick for use to move data between
computers

What file are they trying to make your create by floppy? I don't recall
creating a floppy to take to other computers when I setup my wireless
network.
