Networking Windows XP Home

[Guest]

Hello all

I'm trying to network a pc to a laptop both running windows xp home. The IPs
im using are as follows:

PC: 192.168.0.1
Laptop: 192.168.0.2
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.0.254
Workgroup name: MSHOME

The laptop shows up on my PC's network folder....but when I click on it it
says "Network path was not found"

The laptop's network folder shows NOTHING and also gives a message saying"
Mshome is not accessible. You might not have permission to use the network
resource. Contact the server administrator to fid out if you have access
rights. The list of servers for this workgroup is not available"

Any ideas?

TNX ^_^
