If your desktop is ME than make sure that you enabled file and print sharing. This
is a scary thing so make sure that you read up on it before you enable it in network
places. After enableing it you will have to install it on your xp. Now I have a question
for you how did you get your internet sharing with ME I have pro on my laptop and
I can't figure it out for the life of me
