Hi, I'm using XP pro and set up a network with my other computer with Win 98SE. But now a day later the XP computer can't see the other one. I can see the workgroup, but not the other PC which should of course be there. If I want to 'view network computers' or 'view network connections' through 'My Network Places' it just hangs until I press ctrl-alt-del and choose 'end task'. Now I could go through the hassle of setting up the network again every time I want to use it, but that would be a pain. Anyone got any ideas as to where I should look?

And another question: The other day the 'My Computer' icon disappeared off the desktop. It did not go to the recycle bin. And I have no idea as to where it might be. How do I get it back again?
 
Not too sure about the first part, but i have the same problem with mine, except theyre both XP. One professional the other home.

As for the My Computer icon, (assuming this is on the xp computer) click Start, right click my computer and click "show on desktop".
