Setup: There are three computers. Laptop w/ xp pro (A), Laptop w/ xp home (B), and desktop w/ xp home (C). Computer C is hooked up to the wireless router. They are all in the same workgroup. Computer B can access both A and C. Computer A can see B and C but can only access C. When I try to access B I get this message: \\B is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to see if you have access permissions. The network path was not found.

How bout C?.Can it see and access A&B?.Your almost there.Just double check 2 things.Firstly, all firewalls are down.Check the folder{s} that you designated for sharing and make sure there are ticks in all boxes except the first box.If the box " Allow network users to change my files" is not checked, it won't let you in.Update us.
