Hi Gary,
Thank you for responding. Dell's laptops come with a Dell mobile
broadband software package that performs the same functions as VZAM
but it must be slightly different as I do not see any entries for
Venturi in my program list.
Additionally, I CAN browse network drives in the same exact setting by
simply changing the OS to XP professional SP2. I also know that it is
not a hardware issue, as I've got a dual install of XP and Vista on
the same laptop I'm using to test. That also eliminates the
possibility that's its related to account or drive security. It has
to be something to do with the way Vista handles security when in a
non-domain environment.
