Ensure you are networked first, use the windows network wizard to help with this. Then open the media player on the laptop and turn on the desktop computer. When the program loads go to the open file icon or pull down file then open. At the box go to the pull down arrow and select "my network places " and select the location, that is on the desktop,where the file you want to open is located. Double click it and your laptop will begin to play it.
