This is a very strange situation. I have built home network with three computers but I can not see other computers in it. This is case with all three computers. From any of them I can not find others. I thought home networking is easy… Can you give me some help with this problem?

Hello. Home networking is easy, actually:). From what you described I can conclude that you have not placed computers in one workgroup. It is necessary to do if you want your home network to function correctly. Go to Control Panel – System. Click Computer Name tab and notice “Full computer name” and “Workgroup” entries. First one must be different for each computer and second one must be same on all computers. To change entries click “Change” button and enter correct values.
