Hey all,
I have a problem on networking.
2 desktop and 1 laptop on a home network. after i install SP2 on all pcs, 1
of the desktop can't be seen on the network group pcs.
I have tried disable firewall, re-setup networking for several times. It
just doesn't show up in network group, nor does the share folder on that pc
show up.
the other 2 pc seems to keep the network fine.
googled and search on computing.net, but no result works for me.
any suggestion what is going wrong?

If you'd like to work this out one-on-one in email, send me a message and
I'll gladly walk you through the process.

Thanks anyway.
