text: help! i need to access files from my old computer!? okay, so recently i bought a notebook computer using the windows xp system and i have it hooked up to a wireless internet network.  there are three computers in my house, one downstairs, and 2 in my room. the computer downstairs is the one where the wireless router is located.  what i need to be able to do is access files that are on my old computer (the other computer in my bedroom) from my new computer (the laptop).  does anyone know how i go about doing this? i found a site on the internet that told me how to create 'shared' folders, and i did this but i can't figure out how to access the shared folders.  i also have a program called 'network magic'; but it isn't letting me see the bedroom computer on my laptop, just the one downstairs.  any help would be greatly appreciated...thanks! put all the computers in the same work group:  start> settings> control panel> system> computer name tag> click "change" button  do this in the 3 computers and put the same daomain.
