Read article (link below) for instructions running "browstat status" and
"ipconfig /all". Where is "ipconfig /all" from all 3 computers? From 1
computer?
I'll ask again, for your benefit:
# Are Computer 2 and 3 running Simple, or Advanced File Sharing?
# Provide "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" for all 3 computers. See this
article for instructions:
<http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/troubleshooting-network-neighborhood.html#AskingForHelp>
# Check how file sharing is setup. See these articles:
