Windows 7 Starter networked to a Vista OS
I have Windows 7 Starter edition and have been able to network this machine to my Vista OS machine. I have shgared the printers on the Vista machine that has the printer hooked to it, but I am unable to acces that printer from my 7 machine. It appears that with this version of Windows 7 I can not set up a workgroup so i am unable to see the netwrked printers. Can anyone tell me if this is correct or give me direction on how to be able to print from my Windows 7 system through the home network tot he printer that is connected to my Vista machine. Thanks,
