Can't setup my computer with Home Networking Wizard

[Rick]

After running the Wizard, my computer "Ricks" doesn't show
up on "My Network Places". I can access the Internet OK
but not the network.

I had the same problem but came across this artical you need Netbuei installed

It's OK to install NetBEUI, but it's not necessary. Nothing in
Windows networking has ever required NetBEUI.

If a network doesn't work with TCP/IP as the only protocol,
something's wrong with the network setup, and installing NetBEUI only
covers up the problem. The most likely problem is that a firewall is
blocking access.
