How to get my Leopard to detect my Vista machine

[unce]

Hi, I just installed Vista Ultimate on my PC, and I can't seem to get my macbook pro which is running Leopard to detect my Vista machine. It was fine in XP. I tried right clicking my Harddrives in Vista and sharing them. This usually works in XP but it doenst seem to work for Vista...

I really suck at vista lol anyone know the solution?

Thanks

Probably need some more info on your set-up: how are you connecting? Who's wired, who's wireless? Can you ping the Vista box? etc.

In vista, turn user account control OFF (horrible useless feature) this is done in the control panel under user accounts,

next, go into network connections and make sure your network discovery is turned on and whatever else from the list you want turned on. Reboot and this should do it for you.

Sorry its vague after a year I sold my vista machine and switched to mac. (My mac is still in the mail : / )

My router is connected to ISP, my Vista is connected to my router, and my Mac is connected through wireless.

How can I try Pinging my Vista?
