i was just needing some help with the last computer.
(the two working computers are referred to as computer 1 and 2, and computer 3 is the one that isn't connecting to the network)
here is some information on all of them:
Computer 1:
OS: Windows XP Pro, SP1
NIC: National Semiconductor DP83815-Based
Type: Wired
IP: 192.168.5.2
Computer 2:
OS: Windows XP Pro, SP1
NIC: NetGear FA311 Fast Ethernet Adapter
Type: Wired
IP: 192.168.5.3
Computer 3: (problem computer)
OS: Windows XP Pro, SP1
NIC: NetGear FA310TX Fast Ethernet Adapter
Type: Wired
IP: 192.168.5.4
All computers are on the same workgroup aswell.
computer 1 can ping itself and computer 2
computer 2 can ping itself and computer 1
computer 3 can only ping itself.
hopefully that will shed some light on the problem and give you a chance to help me fix it.
thx for all your help
