I am unable to ping a laptop running XP Pro SP1. I have tried everything.
Verified that the built in firewall is not turned on. Other that that i have complete connectivity to the network, just no connectivity to the laptop.

Any ideas anyone??

Little setup info needed. Wireless, Ethernet, what type of network. Also, laptop is able to access the network? Or no? If no, check for latest drivers, or uninstall the NIC in device manager and reboot. What OS are you trying to connect from? Same OS (XP) or 2000, etc? How is this setup, P2P, via Router, switch, hub, etc... let me know. Going to go workout now.

Try this to reset TCP/IP in XP:
Click Start -> Run -> CMD <Enter>
At the prompt type:
NETSH INT IP RESET C:\IPRESET.TXT
<Enter>
Restart the computer. If this doesnt work, uninstall TCP/IP from network protocols, restart, and then reinstall. Hope this helps. Also might be the winsock file at fault, this is a repair utility you can try:
