I have a desktop machine hooked up directly to my router, and a laptop using
wireless. This has been together for over 4 years, and most recent change was
1 year ago I moved, but same network setup. But now, the desktop is
inaccessible on the network. I can find, access and use files on the wireless
laptop. But cannot access desktop from laptop. Get errors that network path
not found. I tried removing and reinstalling ethernet adapter, microsoft file
sharing, microsoft net client, already had netbios. I even tried using
wireless card on my desktop. No dice, can access the laptop, but it cannot
access desktop. It was working 2 days ago, only new change was installing of
the windows genuine advantage notification. Both are valid installs. What is
the deal?
 
Now even if firewalls were the problem, why would it be an issue now a year
later? Firewalls are not on, I am sorry I did not clarify that, but I looked
at that too.
