Can access internet but not 2nd com shared files.

[Dave]

I have a new computer at home. After setting up home
office I can access the Internet on both computers but
they cant see each others shared C files. Have no problem
with the same laptop at work which I set up small business
on. Coms at work dont have service pack 2 yet.

Both computers have service pack 2 and I tried turning off
all fire walls
Microsoft Firewalls OFF
Laptop PC cillian firewall OFF
Home com Norton firewall OFF
No problem with the network cards and they ping fine to
each other????????
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks Dave

Computers? Network hardware? Wired? Wireless? Peer-to-Peer?
Client/server?

By 'home office' do you mean a small network?

We're NOT mind readers : )

Dave,

please have a look at http://www.michna.com/kb/WxSP2.htm.

I guess you may have to uninstall all third party firewalls and
virus checkers for a test.
