I'm sure this has been a problem for other people, but I can't find an answer.
I have several PCs on my LAN. Some are XP and one is Vista 64,
Sometimes everything works just fine. I can see each PC from he other;
browse the hard drives copy files...
But occasionally my Vista machine seems to loose its mind and can no longer
see my XP machine. If I then walk over to my Xp machine, it can see the Vista
machine just fine. Even weirder, if i walk away for a few hours, the Vista
machine magically starts talking to the XP machine again.
I just don't know where to start to resolve this.
 
It could be computer browser issue. have you enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP on
all computers? Or any errors in the Event Viewer?
