Got a problem accessing some files from my win xp pro sp2 to vista home.
Everything seems to be setup correctly. I'm sharing the hard drives between
machines i can access the shared folders on both machines. When i try to
access through the users on the accounts to get to the desktop files it
doesn't allow me access. The other day it asked me for a username and
password and i typed it and i got access but i forgot to tick remember
username and password. I'm at a loss as what to do. Any help? It shows this
error code: 0×80070005.

Problems sharing files between computers on a network are generally caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall; or 2) inadvertently running two firewalls such as the built-in Windows Firewall and a third-party firewall; and/or 3) not having identical user accounts and passwords on all Workgroup machines; 4) trying to create shares where the operating system does not permit it. ... You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and the passwords assigned to each user account can be different; the accounts/passwords just need to exist and match on all machines. ...
