I have the same here, click network center then full map, nowhere I can see
the other 2 computers.
Found out how to get it to work the other way by changing the shared
settings back on this computer (vista) and can now access the Vista PC with
the other 2 on the network (1 laptop & one desktop, all 3 hardwired into
netgear router)
Anyone else got any better ideas apart from clicking heals, lol.

Same here. Have got the public folder on my vista machine to be viewable on
the other 2 computers (all hard wired via netgear router) but cannot view
other computers from the vista machine ?

Elsewhere in a forum, just cant find the post again now,
1./ Click Start > Right Click Computer >Properties > Change Settings
rename workgroup to WORKGROUP (All caps) Restart
2./ Run Home network setup XP Machines and change to WORKGROUP also, restart
Worked fine for me can now see all machines
Thanks whoever posted that originally

This is the most likely the reason why other computers don't show up: in XP
the default workgroup was often "MSHOME" while in VISTA it apperas to be
"WORKGROUP". So simply change your Workgroup name to "MSHOME" on your VISTA
machine, or the other way round.
