Thursday night I formatted my laptop's hard drive and reinstalled XP Home. My desktop (192.168.0.101) and my laptop (192.168.0.67) are both on the same workgroup (DLU_NT). They are connected by a crossover cable, they can ping each other, and the desktop can see the laptop in the workgroup. However, the laptop varies among seeing nothing, seeing itself, and seeing both computers but being unable to access the desktop. At present, it sees the desktop but says that the network path was not found. This was what was happening before I formatted, and it worked fine for a while after I reinstalled Windows, but now it's frelled again. Could it have something to do with connecting to my campus network in the interrim? I just want the damned thing fixed. Help, please.

"...but now it's frelled again." I guess that's what you get for using technology from the "Farscape" universe...

Fucked.
Why must netoworking be so stupid anyway? Why can't you just plug two computers together, and they see each other, shake hands, go for coffee, and exchange files? Eh? WHY MUST LIFE BE SO HARD?

MM has an ally.....
I've never had too much of a problem setting up networks, although I've never done anything over 17 locations on a WAN.... and those were Compaqs... I am surprised that things went as well as they did...
