I run a workgroup at home with 2 desktops and 1 laptop.
The two desktops can browse the workgroup and access each
other's shared files. My laptop used to, but can no
longer access the Workgroup. When I try to navigate using
Windows Explorer to the workgroup, I get an error message
saying that the workgroup is not currently accessible and
that the list of servers for the workgroup is not
currently available. I can however ping other computers
and access the internet (via my ADSL router). Internet
Connection Firewall is disabled. Netbios over TCP/IP is
enabled for my network connection. Simple file sharing is
disabled. Can you help?
