Unless I saw the error... and specifically what it said, I can't buy it. &nbsp;There's no sharing incompatibility between 64 and 32bit OS.

This is not for me - it's for a friend.<br />
<br />
He's got Vista running 64bit on one machine, and 32bit on another machine.<br />
<br />
He says he's not able to get file-sharing to work between the two machines, and that it says something about being unable to share files between 64bit and 32bit machines. &nbsp;Is that true? &nbsp;How can he work around that?<br />
<br />
ALSO - he said he'd like to consider in the future running 32bit on both machines; he said the Vista software he bought didn't say anything about being 64 or 32 bit. &nbsp;is it possible that they have both versions on one CD? &nbsp;I didn't think it was. &nbsp;

File-sharing between Vista 64 and Vista 32bit not working!?

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
