I am running xp home on two computers, and have them connected with a
crossover cable. MAinly set up for playing games over a lan. My setup used to work, but I had to format my drive, and now I can't get one of my computers to setup the network right again. One computer still has all it's info, and will see the other... but the one I formatted, will not find the other. I was able to bring it up by going to >Start >Run and entering the ip address of the working one. And I can get to the computer, but in all other ways it won't acknowledge there is a network. Not through games or through windows. When I try to look at the workgroup, it tells me the directory of computers is not available... or something to that effect... I have also tried to remake the network with the wizard, and it doesn't seem to do anything... the same connection that I already had is still on the "network connections" screen... And I cannot find the place where I can change the ip address and stuff to try and make bothe computers the same... CAn anyone possibly help me??? Thanks alot... |

Kier, There are a few reasons for the problem, which you're describing, and which is seen here regularly. The most common is a misconfigured or overlooked firewall, but there are other possibilities too. <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/10/irregularities-in-workgroup-visibility.html> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/1...isibility.html If no help, provide "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" from each computer, as a start.

Okay, thanks, I tried all that, and to no avail... I'll refer to the comps

And I still cannot access comp 1 from 2, though comp 2 does act like it's on the network???? so here is the browstat, and ip config for the two... comp 1: C:\browstat>browstat status Status for domain FUN on transport \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{5274303C-37EB-422A-A7A1- B97F5ACA959B} Browsing is NOT active on domain.

That's fine, though its presence may make diagnosing your problem a bit more complicated than it should be. But let's start by working on the IPV6 issue. <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/fix-network-problems-but-clean-up.html> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...-clean-up.html After you remove IPV6 from Jessica, post updated "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" from both computers. We'll go from there. And post after my replies, please. Help me to help you. <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/how-to-post-on-usenet-and-encourage.html#TopPosting> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...tml#TopPosting -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.

Charles, Removal of unnecessary protocols is simple. Just highlight the network component to be removed, and hit the Uninstall button below the list. Follow instructions, and restart the system when requested. <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/fix-network-problems-but-clean-up.html> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...-clean-up.html To get consistent results, you need to remove IPV6 before running any diagnostics. -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
