Thanks to all who replied, I finally solved this problem!

The answer was suggested above, which was to re-enable the "server" service. Once I did this, and started the service, I could now fileshare both ways. I had had it disabled after reading Black Viper's guide, which on retrospect was a bit of a waste as it saved a negligible ammount of memory and has caused me problems with other disabled services.

By the way, is there anyway to share the Windows and Program Files folders? They seem to be unavailable for security reasons.
