From your Network Connections, select your
network adapter and then select "Change Settings of this
Conncection". To find your "Network Connections", select "My
Computer" from the start menu, then select "My Network Places" and
finally select "My Network Connections".
You should see a screen
that looks like the one below. Be sure 'Client for Microsoft
Networks" and "File and Printer Sharing" are both installed.
If they are not installed, click the "Install Button" to install
them now. - You should also check to ensure the
XP built in firewall is DISABLED. This is in the
ADVANCED tab.
Next, select the "Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP)" and click Properties.
You should now see a screen like the one
below. If you have a network that uses a STATIC IP ADDRESS schema
you will see information here. Most likely, your screen should
look just like this. Next, click the Advanced
Button
Select the WINS tab. Under the "NetBios
Setting" area, select the "Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP"
