Update: I set up Computer E, and from Computer B I ran "net view" from
a command line, and can see all of the computers including A (the new
MCE PC). Again, from the laptop I can access files on all but A.
Error: Network path not found.

If I run "net view" from Computer A, I got the error: System error 6118
has occurred. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently
available."

Does this help?

I have Norton Internet Security running on A.

The 6118 says that, if there is a computer running the browser service, it's not
sharing the browse list. This could be a firewall issue, or any other problem
discussed in my article. A set of "browstat status" is very useful here.
