I've got a network problem that I can't seem to solve. I've got a gateway laptop and a desktop that I built. The laptop is running xp media center while the desktop is running xp home. Both can ping the router/modem, the laptop can ping the desktop and take control of it usin tight vnc, but the desktop cannot ping the laptop. The laptop use xp's firewall while the desktop uses comodo personal firewall. What could be causing this and how can I solve this.
