HI,

I have a little problem here is that my newly installed XP
pro ( Clean installed using NTFS ), was able to browse my
other pc which is running win 95, 98 and a win2k pro.

Only my win2k pro was able to borwse XP . AS for the rest
i can borwse XP at all. error message stating :- 'make
sure the network path is correct'( not quite sure ).

When i setup my network is ask me to put in a disk and
copy a programme and install to other pc which want to
connect to Xp for the first time, i did not setup the
disk. Is it because of this problem?

"Network path not found" in a workgroup network - error 53

RESOLUTIONS:
1) Make sure that File and Printer Sharing is enabled on on the shared
computer.
2) Make sure that shared machine has something shared.
3) Make sure that you have created the same workgroup and logon the same
username if you try to access w2k/xp network.
4) Make sure that you have enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP if this is a mixed OS
network.
