Re: XP Home cannot see XP Pro

Thanks Chuck for your help and patience. As the problem is basically with
the XP Home and XP Pro systems, I'm not going to worry about the laptop now
which I use rarely. Something changed with me enabling file sharing with the
Windows XP Pro system and logon. Now the XP Pro system is the Master Browser
and it has an Error = 5 message.

Here is the Browstat information for the Windows XP Home system.

I've read through your articles and I am not sure how to proceed. What would
you next recommend that I try doing? Thanks so much for your help and
assistance with my problems here.
