Just ordered the last piece for my all new PC, Windows 7 Pro(retail). This machine replaces my flaked-out XP Pro(OEM copy)machine that has been down for some time. I've been using my daughter's PC that I built for her(XP Home OEM). Do REALLY have to upgrade her machine to Win 7 just to have my network back or will they share internet? I've got a lot of money wrapped up in OEM copies of Win XP(Home and Pro) that are tied to motherboards that no longer function and don't want to waste a perfectly good copy to upgrade to 7. Not to mention the cost. Hers is not that powerful either. Please advise.1 person needs an answerI do too

Can it share, yesHow you choose to share depends on what you want ie Modem>Router>PC's, or Modem >PC>LAN
