    hi, i have just got my new A1 xp version. I am connected to the web through my wirless router which is also connected to my desktop pc. on my last laptop i just clicked add network place and i was able to connect and view the files and print on my home desktop pc (file and printing permissions are in place) the problem is that the A1 does not seem able to find the desktop pc. if i try to install the ms client protocol it asks for the driver and dispite putting the xp cd on a usb drive it will still not find it? anyone had this problem and reolved it?? incidentally what a great little machine. thanks james
