Make sure you have enabled network discovery and file sharing (Control
Panel - Network and Sharing Center)

i have tried all of that the network discovery is on file sharing is on the
only thing that is off is the priter sharing as there is no printer attached
my ip address is corect but i can not ping it from another pc on the network
how ever i can ping any machine on the network from the laptop any other
suggestions
 
Next, check Vista's firewall settings...it may be blocking network traffic
to/from your other PCs. Are all PCs in the same workgroup?
