Greetings.. I am unsucessfully trying to set up my home network with both computers running XP.

Unfortunatley i cant get it to work. I have run the network setup wizard on both computers and assigned the right workgroup name to both but still the computers cannot find eachother.

Any hints/tips/or assistance would be gratefully accepted please.

could you describe the full setup..software/hardware/ network setup style?

any router's in the mix?

on all computers do
start > run > ipconfig /all and post back the results

<grins sheepishly>

One of the computers was running an old xp with only sp1...installed brand new win xp sp2 and through the wizard it worked first try.
