Default Cannot see 1 of 3 computers

Chuck, Yes, I did a complete "Power Off" (just did re-boots earlier) and
still no change. Browstat doesn't seem to want to run. I downloaded it, but
when i run it, a Command Window pops up and goes away so fast I can't see
anything in the window. Still don't have a clue as to why Computer A is not
seen on the Home Computing network. (One somewhat thing is: under Entire
Network (under My Network Places) on Computer A, I only see one entry
(Microsoft Windows Network) whereas on the other 2 visable networked
computers (B & C), under Entire Computer, I see 3 entries (MS Terminal
Services, MS Windows Network, and Web Client Network) -- don't know what any
of these do except that I do see the MSHOME network under the MS Windows
Network entry.

Chuck, The Computer Browser is not running on Computer B -- just says manual

Browser and TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper is running on Computer A & C. Also, it
looks like you have to go to Properties to disable -- is that right --
anyway, I didn't disable the Computer Browser on Computer B since it was not
started -- I did reboot Computer B -- no change.


Ron,

Stopping the Browser service is sufficient. Which computers is it running on
now? What results do you get from "browstat status" on all 3 computers? Did
you power all 3 computers off?
