This was message on event viewer on my client called laptop.

Your computer was not able to renew its address from the network (from the
DHCP Server) for the Network Card with network address 0008743A9AA4. The
following error occurred:

The semaphore timeout period has expired. . Your computer will continue to
try and obtain an address on its own from the network address (DHCP) server.

I am using a 4 port 10/100 router and a 8 port 10/100 switch in a smart
panel. Host Computer name is Office. In Network Places on the host is sees c
on Host (office It does not see Laptop (Client) Workgroup should be MSHome
and it only shows Host in Office (Office) Network Connections are 1394
Connection and Local Area Connection. Under the support tab it shows Address
type assigned by DHCP IP 192.168.1.2 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Deafault
Gateway 192.168.1.254

Client Computer

I clicked on view workgroup computers and received the following error
message

MSHome not accessible the network path was not found

When I clicked on c on Host (office) from client it said

I copied this message from Event Viewer on the client Laptop computer

The system detected that network adapter
\DEVICE\TCPIP_{D2923AF9-F91B-4601-9CB4-828AFD88FEFC} was disconnected from
the network, and the adapter's network configuration has been released. If
the network adapter was not disconnected, this may indicate that it has
malfunctioned. Please contact your vendor for updated drivers.

Thank you Chuck for your response.

Hank,

This is going to take a very long time to resolve, if you cannot learn how to
use the computer properly. Look at other posts in this forum. Do you see
single posts by everybody asking for help? No, you see threads. Threads are
good. Threads are like a conversation. What you're doing is not conversing,
you're talking to yourself.

Anyway, start by looking for LSP / Winsock problems. Try all 5 solutions
recommended in here:

Once you fix the network problem, post complete and unedited "ipconfig /all" for
both computers!

And please, Hank, learn to use Outlook Express. Others have learned, and I bet
you can too.
