Hi

I have a small network of 7pc. I reinstalled Windows on one of the computers and now I can't see any of the others in NETWORK NEIGHBORHOOD.

All systems are running 98SE and have TCP/IP protocols installed. All other PC's are able to "see" the printer. I know for a fact that the PC in question is connected to the network because I can surf the net (shared connection via a router) and search for other PCs on the network. They just wont appear on "network neighborhood" and when I try clicking on say, n.5 (in search) I get message \\pc5 is not accessible.

Thanks

You should check to make sure that the "workgroup" setting is the same across all of the PCs.

You also should have the Windows File and Printer sharing service installed.
