Network help (WXP-Home)

[rlogle]

I have two computers. Both running XP Home. They are sharing my cable modem service without a problem thru a wired broadband router. Both are set to share. Have ran the network wizard several times. When I go to network places and look at view workgroup computers all I can see is the computer I'm on. It does this on both systems. I want to be able to share printers and some files, but neither system is recognizing the other on the network. Any ideas?

Did you turn of the firewall? and did you set file/print sharing on?

The firewall is off and both are set to sharing. Finally I can share files between the two machines, but still can't share printer. Keeps saying that software will be installed from other computer for the printer, however when it try's to do this it say's that the files can not be found.... Always somethin'.

did you check the printer spooler? Is it started automatically?
