Ok...I finally got my computers metworked together..usinf NetBEUI...then with TCP/IP. (I removed NetBEUI then)..I could access all shared folders from both computers. But I couldnt get my ICS to work. So I bought a router (Linksys) and configured it fine. Internet on both computers. But now only one computer (desktop box#1) can see the LAN and access shared folders. The laptop (box #2) will not see network. Also,..when I boot up on both computers..it asks for network username and password....why is this?? Is there a way to remove these log in screens? And a way to delete any possible network password from box#2?? I dont remember if I typed one in or not. It could only be two possible passwords..and both produce the same effect. "Cant browse network"Thanks for all the help!! -whispers-
