Please make sure that you have the "Client for Microsoft Networks" installed for the network adapters on each machine. You can do this by:
1. Go to the Network Connections folder.
2. Find the LAN Connection, right-click, and go to Properties
3. In the window that opens, there should be a smaller window that displays the adapters, services, and clients installed for each adapter. Make sure that the "Client for Microsoft Networks" is installed on both machines. This is an option that is normally installed with a default, but I have seen many cases where it was not. This is necessary for Windows machines to "see" each other in Windows Explorer.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for your help. I've checked on both PCs. Clients for Microsoft networks is installed. Also File and Print Sharing is checked on both computers, but still not worked. I'm running out of resource to try.

what if you share a directory manually? does it show up when you acces it by the network: \\computerB (fill in the pc name there)
so: \\pcname from the start - run option
so: \\pcname from the start - run option
