So, I'm trying to set up my home network, and because one of my computers
uses Media Center edition, I have to create a network disc on my main PC,
which is fine, but it saves it to a floppy disc, and I don't have any floppy
discs, but more importantly, I don't have a floppy drive on the PC that's
running Media Center edition.

Is there any other way I can set up my network without using the Network
Setup Disc?

Plug them all into the same network, change the firewall settings so that
File & Printer sharing is allowed on YOUR subnet only, use the machines on
the network and access file and printers that are shared...
