I have a small business with a server and 5 computers on a network.
After a recent motherboard failure I upgraded my PC with an Asus P5PE-VM S775 motherboard & a P4 3.0 Ghz CPU.
After re-installing Windows XP Pro, I connected to the network without any problems.
After updating my systems from MS Update and restarting, I can no longer see the network. I get the following message:
Network is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available.
I am fairly sure that the problem has arisen after an update from MS. I am just not sure how to fix the problem.
The network is running on a workroup.
Client for MS Networks, File and printer sharing for MS Networks & QoS Packet Schedular are installed as protocols.
IP’s are manually set on each machine.
Cannot ping any of the machines now. (could before updates from Microsoft)
Firewall is currently disabled.
Can anyone help?
