Windows XP Networking Problem

[Guido]

We have 2 computers in a peer-to-peer network.

Computer 1 - Windows XP Pro
Computer 2 - Windows XP Home

Following upgrade to Service Pack 3, we are unable to Browse the Network.

It takes a long time to disply the workgroup name.

We get the following message:

"Worgroup is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the network administrator of this server to find
out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found".

This happens from both computers.

Your help is appreciated.

Regards,

Guido
