Default Networking Questions

I have a home network set up (I am a bit new to
networking) and everything is working but I have a question. I have certain
folders shared with the "downstairs" computer and certain folders shared
with the "upstairs" computer. The downstairs computer is running WinXP HE
with 1 G of DDR RAM and the upstairs computer is running WinME with 512 M of
SDRAM memory. The issues is this: I can see and have access to the
upstairs computer from the downstairs computer and I can see but NOT have
access to the downstairs computer from the upstairs computer...it says that
there is not enough memory. Is this truly the case or are there just
limitation with WinME that do not exist with WinXP HE?...or maybe I just
have something configured wrong. Before I go out
and buy more SDRAM memory or I upgrade WinME to WinXP HE...I would like know
for sure, if possible, which it is...Thanks for any advice you can
provide...

BTW...here is what I have...
OK...like a say, I am a bit new to this...what I have on the XP computer is:

Client for MS Networks
Eacfit Driver
File and Packet Sharing for MS Networks
QoS Packet
Internet Protocal

What I have on the ME computer is:

Client for MS Networks
LPR for TCP/IP printing
802.11g Wirless PCI card
Dial-up adpater
TCP/IP - 802.11g PCI Card
TCP/IP - Dial Up Adapter
File and Print Sharing for MS Networks

See this article - I think your network is fine but this setting is not:

Perhaps I need to restate the issue...I can see the ME machine from the XP
machine with no problem, but I cannot see the XP machine from the ME machine
(will actually I can see it but it says that there is not enough memory to
open the folder)...so it would appear that the issue lies with the ME
machine...your link below take me to a procedure for the XP machine...is
this correct? Since there is not a registry entry in ME (without adding a
couple of layers) but there is such a registry entry in XP...I am confused.
Does the problem lie with the XP machine or with the ME machine??? THANKS

The problem is with the HOST computer - the one that you're trying to get
to. It is not a problem with the GUEST computer - the one that you're
seeing the error message on.
