Access a drive of a pc in a network from another PC

114 100+
Hi.
I have a network at home which includes 2 XP Home PCs and they are connected to the internet.

What I want to do, is to access the C: drive of the other PC in my network.
Is that possible?

I have only 2 PCs on my non wireless network.

I am using the D-Link DSL - 504T router.

Both PCs have XP home. One has a P4 processor and another has a quad core.
Both have sufficient RAM and HDD space.

I cant really think of anything else that might be useful.

Ok, have you enabled sharing for the hard drive that you want to share? XP Home should be have simple file sharing enabled by default. See if you have a sharing option when you right click the drive, if so, enable it.
