Hi everyone. I am brand new here. I have 3 desktops at home, one running XP, one vista, one win 7. I cannot map to drives on the xp box from win 7. I can map to drives on the vista machine. Am I correct in assuming that MS did this on purpose to force people to "upgrade" from xp to vista or win7?

Sorry. I had it backwards. I can map a drive from win7 to the xp box. I cannot map a drive in win7 from the xp machine.
