If you were using TCP/IP only, it could be a subnetting problem, but you are
also using NetBEUI and your workgroup has the same name - so transport
protocol should not be an issue. Check your subnet and mask just to be
sure. Double check your workgroup name also. It could be a cable problem
but you say you've tried another cable. Could both cables have a problem?
Maybe you have a NIC driver problem. What kind of network cards? Do you
see a problem in Device Manager? Can you re-install both drivers with the
correct driver? Can both computers ping the other? Can you connect with
the NET USE command? HTH
