Sorry if this post doesn't belong here.
I am trying to network 2 of our computers. One running vista home premium, the other running windowx xp home. At first, I could see the XP machine from the vista machine network place. Then I changed my computer name (and restarted), and now I can't see the XP machine.
What could be the problem? Network discovery is set to "On".

windows is a biatch about this kind of thing - try typing
into the run box and see if that connects - you may find it will magically appear after a while.
