QUOTE(vandetta @ Aug 12 2006, 01:05 PM) You have to enable file sharing in windows also and share the folder / partition that you want so then you can see the data in it.. It's the pre-installed OS that came together with the MB, right? I would suggest you to erase and install it back, so that you can have full control of what will be installed in your MB Congartulations man, 2GB of RAM will push your Mac to maximum  But RM650 is surely a lot more cheaper than the tested-by-apple RAM and it worth it, right?  sigh.. since the macbook is less than a week old, ill let the macstudio people solve my macbook prob.
