What does it take to get a home LAN running on XP? I have XP on a laptop
and on a desktop, with a router/switch connecting the two. Both can easily
browse the Web, but it's always difficult for me to get them to use each
other's shared resources. I've gotten it to work well if I use NetBEUI, but
from what I've read I shouldn't have to use that...I should be able to use
TCP/IP alone.

Is there some trick to it?
