I just received a new dell with windows XP Pro. I have
installed a couple of new software that was necessary for
work, and have attempted to set up the network on it with
the other Gateway in the office. Now when I go into
windows explorer it shuts down as soon as I try to click
on something, and on both computers when I try to use run
it will not do anything and will just go back to the
desktop. Also, on the networking we had ethernet setup
on our computers and was working fine until my computer
crashed and I replaced with the Dell. Now mine sees the
other computer but it doesn't see mine. I used ping and
it went through to mine but when we try to log on it says
there is not a network.

Any help with these problems would be great.

Thanks
 
Since you bought a DELL and paid for their support, use it,
they're pretty good and you paid for it.

Did you use the network wizard in XP to set up the network?
Your new computer might have a firewall or the files may be
protected so the other computers can't see them. You really
need more help than you'll get here.

This is not a bad place and the info is valid, but you have
several issues,
