File Sharing - the test of faith

[greendeebie]

Hi. I posted a few days ago re: file sharing issues I'm having with vistaaaahhhhhhhhhhh! - Had no replies so I'm thinking this is a dead topic or just plain boring, but nonetheless, I'm determined to get it sorted so I'm making an appeal to all those who're down with the technical side of this lovely but slightly frustrating operating system; to give me hand. The problem is that despite following the couple of online trouble shoots which have you modify your regedit and group policy manager, the bloody thing still wont work for me. I even reinstalled a nice fresh copy of operating system - omitting only superficial things so's not to mess with anything potentially important......no luck. Would someone...anyone, pleeaaaaase put me out of my misery?
