Network computer listings (3 posts)

Hello all,

I have two PC's networked with router and cable running Win XP Home.

When I do a search for "Computers" from either machine, the other machine is listed twice, each listing with the same information.

Is this normal or do I need to set up the network again from scratch?

It seems to work OK, I can share files and printer and play multiplayer LAN games.

Thanks for any help.

You may have shared the C drive twice. Delete all shares, disable file and printer sharing completely, then start again.
