Breakthrough....kinda

i dont know why buy i can get in this way now.

"\\192.168.0.155\c\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Documents"

that and any path of a shared folder let me add/take files! YAY...but y not through my network places? is it because "\\192.168.0.155" itself doesnt allow me to get in, so network places (which i presume would go to the highest [root] dir)?

i guess its kinda solved now...thanks again everyone.

well, it's a workaround, but it's not "fixed"

if u want to keep going 'til it's "fixed" then let us know (u could post the ping results from your new pc to the old pc as an indicator as well).

Good Luck!

Make sure NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled:

http://ecross.mvps.org/howto/netbt.htm

If you're getting access is denied, are you using Simple Filesharing on both systems? That usually indicates that the guest account is not enabled on the system that the access is being denied from.

Here's a great site to help out with Windows networking issues:

Windows XP Network Problem Solver

The page says it's SP1 specific, but it works for all version, from RTM to SP2.

The pings returned fine. Are there any firewalls installed on this system?

Here's another tip to try for your situation. If you can access by IP address, but not by name or through the Network Neighborhood, this might help:

wasn't that the ping from the Pro to the Home system - the one your not having a problem with?

maybe, maybe not, as the "ping post" only contained the pings from one machine, not both.
