I have two computers on a home network running through a router. Both
computers are running xp home sp1. Both computers can connect to the
internet just fine but one of the computers is having trouble accessing the
network. On one, I can open explorer and go to "My network places" and I can
see that computer and the other computer listed, but I cannot access the
other computer.
On the other computer, when I try the same thing, it gets to "My Network
Places\Entire Network\Microsoft Windows Network" I click on that, to bring
up MSHOME and it runs for a while before it finally shows up, then when I
click on that, it says that mshome is not accessible and that I should talk
to the admin.
I have run the network setup wizard on both computers and added both IP
addresses to the firewalls running on both computers. I have also turned off
the firewall that comes with windows. I would sure appreciate a solution to
this problem.
