sage & onion
I have 5 new PC's they came pre-loaded with Windows Vista Home Edition, I want to network them and have discovered to my horror that I am supposed to purchase 5 seperate upgrade programmes, is this correct or can it be done another way?. The cost of each is approx Dhs.750/-.
The PC's were purchased in the US so I can't go back to the supplier for help.
I would greatly appreciate any help on this.

Sage,
For wired networking, All you need is a ethernet switch / hub whatever you call it + network CAT5 cables to connect/network these PCs [Assuming that these machines are ethernet enabled]
And who ever told you that some update was required?

for wireless network, just join them in the same work group or domain if you have a server, you just need a wireless access point.

Hello. There is a wizard in control panel to setup your network. cabled or wireless. Just follow the easy to use on screen prompts. A usb memory stick works good to save data. Select it when the prompt asks where to save imformation. Then plug the usb memory stick into each machine and run home network setup wizard. There is many ways of doing it, but that procedure is pretty fail safe.
