Hi,
I have a home LAN that works perfectly. Mini 8 port Hub, 1 XP+CableModem, 2 XP, 1 Win98se Laptop. Internet Lan gaming & surfing r fine.

My problem is with the laptop. If i disconnect it and then plug it back in a day later all the network neighbourhood pc's disappear but I can still access the internet through the LAN ! Slowly they come back (i keep checking for a day or 2).
But i cannot browse the other PC's. It takes 3mins to get to the shares but cannot get into any folders!! It used to work fine & fast. All the other pc's can browse mine. Thought it was Zone Alarm related but disabled it and still the same :¬(
Ideas anyone?

I recomend you to format it, make a backup of all your files needed and format it. Is the easyest thing to solve problems
