Ok, so let me explain my situation.
I'm trying to link up some computers in my network so that they can share files. They are all hooked up to the same router (wired) and they can all access the internet. I ran the network setup wizard in XP pro on all the computers. They all have different names and they all belong to the same workgroup. When I go to "view computers in workgroup" I can see the computers I've set up, but clicking on them gives me an error saying that it cannot access the other computers. I've checked all of them to see if file sharing is on and all of them have it working. I know they are all hooked up right because I can go to one computer and see all the others, I just can't access them. If anyone knows whats going on I'd greatly appreciate some help. Thanks.
