Hi Goldie and

Have you got the folder that you are trying to access "Shared" ?

[goldie7]

Hi,
Yes my files are all shared ,
i can see them , can open from XP to ME
but not from Me TO xp

Does the account you use to log on to the ME PC have a password?

XP is very fussy about who it connects to and will only speak to PCs with passwords set.

Also, make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is installed on the ME PC.

Some other suggestions can be found here.

Have you got a firewall on each PC ?
If so make sure that you set them to allow the others LAN IP to access it

Thanks
but still having problems for some reason

Are you still getting exactly the same message ie not enough memory  
If so then me and Adept may be thinking along the wrong lines and it could be a problem on your ME pc  
What are the specs for the ME pc ?
