Hi Dave
A couple of things for you to try:
1. Try temporarily disabling your firewall if you're running one until the
pc's can see each other.
2. On each PC enable only the following network connection parameters:
Client for Microsoft Networks
File and Print Sharing for Networks
Internet Protocol (TPC/IP)
Keep in touch. We'll figure this out.
Regards
Vince

Yes to both those questions. Can you think of anything else to check?
