I am planning on getting my first laptop very soon. My problem is that my xp desktop awile back I changed some settings. I got all worried about security and disabled netbios. Now I know where to enable it back, but I could have sworn I did this change through the registry.
My question is will this setting being disabled prevent my laptop from obtaining a connection through the router I plan to get. Do I need to change it back on the XP desktop (netbios)?
The laptop will be running Vista. Just don't want any troubles if I can help it. What are some of the things I may need netbios enabled for?

You don't need NetBIOS, nor does your router.
TIP: Back up all personal data from your old PC (copy to CD / DVD / external hard drive) before you buy your new PC.
