Seriously, start by checking the IP addresses with

ipconfig /all

They should all be withing the same subnet range. (only the last number
should vary) Then try pinging from one computer to another to computer, for
example:

ping 192.168.1.5

If that doesn't work, you have a fairly fundamental problem. If it does,
then try

ping computername

If that doesn't work, you have a name-reeolution problem.

A workaround in that case is to make a network connection with

net use h: \\192.168.1.5\sharename /user:username password

This should work even if the name can't be resolved.

All these commands are typed at a commandprompt (Enter 'cmd' into a Run.. box)
