Computer network does not appear

Computer network in my Windows XP desktop, how to display all of the computers on the network?

Kind regards

Hi Vidal,

1. how many computers is connected to each other?

2. are you using Windows XP home or professional?

You must open the "my network places to view all the computers on the network. You can also use these steps to search for computers on the network.

Step 1: Search for a computer when you know the name of the computer:

If you know the name of the computer, you can search for the computer on the network:

a. click Startand then click Search.

b. click Printers, computers, or people.

c. click on a computer on the network.

d. in the computer name box, type the name of the computer you want to find, and then click Search.

Step 2: Search for a computer when you do not know the name of the computer:

If you do not know the name of the computer, you can browse for the computer on the network:

a. click Startand then click my network places.

b. click on the entire network.

c. double-click Microsoft Windows network.

d. double-click the name of the domain you want to search for.

e. double-click the name of the computer that you want to access so that the shared resources are displayed.

  • New wireless network does not appear on any computer

    Thanks in advance for any help. OK, so I have a HP office connected to the internet through a router WRT54GS.  I had 2 laptops connected to the NICU my wireless router. A (HP) laptop has built in wireless modem/adapter.  The other laptop Dell was NICU equipped with a wireless adapter card.  The problem is that the adapter on the basically dead Dell laptop, I don't give no internet connection.  So I tried to install a more recent network card wireless linksys with speed on the cell phone booster.  The instructions asked me to press the orange button on my router Cisco access point.  I knew thatd be a problem.  While the laptop connected to the internet, my old wireless network seems to be deleted.  Installin the new card on the Dell laptop has created a connection b/t it and the router. The other laptop (HP) is now offline and not even a slate of the new network.  So I tried to create a new wireless network on the main desktop computer.   Now this new network is not detected by the wireless or portable printer.  Other networks is detected if.  Or the original linksys network is detected, Im not sure.

    OK sorry for any confusion, but my basic problem is that my new wireless network is not detected on the laptop or the printer. I tried unpluggin the router. I also tried to manually in the network settings.  I also tried to disable the firewall on my main computer. Nuthing worked. I checked the Device Manager, everything seems fine.

    My router is just old? Its at least 4 years

    I don't know what to do. Thanks again for your suggestions.

    NVM, I got the impression to work. just installed it on the laptop wireless.  I still can't get the 2nd adapter linksys to laptops to work. I'll ask for help in this section of the adapter.

  • Wireless network does not appear without diagnose and repair when the PC is turned on

    My wireless internet works fine when my laptop is running and up to 6 weeks ago, it was automatically available whenever I ran my laptop. Now, when I turned off and turn it back on, my laptop does not access my home network wireless until I have activate the "diagnose and repair network system. This system corrects what ever was wrong and active my network connection. It seems that I have some sort of 'switch' miss-set or the value manual (?) instead of ' Auto (?). Can someone tell me what I need to do to clear up this problem.

    It is difficult to identify what could be wrong.  I recommend that you delete the current wireless network connection entirely (make sure that you remove them completely - in the section Connections page sharing and management as well as the major networks wireless).  Then recreate the connection to go from scratch using the appropriate settings (copy them down before you delete the 'old', if necessary) affecting particular it automatically to connect and see if that solves the problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Installed XP Pro SP3... Now my dvd player does not Sleep in my computer and does not appear to exist? I have no filters in regedit, it isn't a problem of drive letter, model acts as reader's not here yet. No driver for it, as this is the firmware

    DVD/cd burner no longer works. Instlled SP3, no computer behaves as it is not yet connected.  No reader, its firmware.  No filter I know cuttin git.  Not a problem of drive letter, carries the reader will not be open yet.

    Hello Justuslonginus,

    Thank you for your message.  What is the brand of your computer?  It could be that your computer manufacturer has a required update before installing SP3.  You should check with them before moving to the next steps.  After checking with you computer manufacturer, try to run the new hardware wizard to scan.  The instructions are below:
    Click "Start" > click on "Control Panel" > double-click "Add Hardware".
    Answer that the device is already connected and allow the system to scan.
    If your system has not yet found your drive.  Then we can remove SP3 to see if it was the culprit.  Click HERE for instructions to remove the SP3.
    Please let us know if it did or did not help to resolve this problem.
    See you soon

  • My wifi network connection does not appear

    Hello! I hope someone here can help me out.

    The other day my household switched internet companies, and they gave me a new network name and password to connect to the wifi. However, the new network is not displayed on the list of my laptop Vaio wifi connections! My neighbours networks are all appear, and I am still able to connect to other wifi networks, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the WiFi on my laptop (the wifi driver is up-to-date as well). In addition, my phone and Tablet have no problem finding and connecting to the network, identical to those of the other computers in my house, so I know that it is not a problem with the router or the connection itself. The router and laptop have all both been restarted, but that did not help either.  We tried to call the internet society, but they believe it is a problem with the computer itself, since it is the only one that the network does not appear on. It's just the network that does not appear in my list of available connections. I have never experienced a problem like this before!

    Can someone help me understand what could be the cause this and tips to help repair?

    For reference, my laptop is a Sony's Vaio, model number: VPCCB22FD, running Windows 7 (which is what it came with).

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi hard_shark,

    Welcome to the community of Sony!

    What is the type of your wireless router? (You can call your service provider if you don't know). Your computer is too far from the wireless router? It's pretty hard, but we're going to isolate it for us to solve the problem.

    • Power cycle or reset your router. (Even once, you can call your ISP for help). Power cycle your laptop as well. Just remove the battery and press the power button for 5 seconds.
    • Reinstall wireless driver. - Start -> type-> Device Manager double-click network adapters -> right click and Uninstall (DO NOT REMOVE) the wireless network card driver-> to restart the laptop.
    • If still the same then download again the driver wifi: Intel® WiFi Link 1000 BGN Driver then restart the unit.
    • Run the Windows updateand Vaio update .
    • Run convenience store -> Start -> type Troubleshooting -> click on network and Internet -> select network card , then follow the instructions on the screen.
    • go to the control panel-> (as read by: category) under network and Internet, select view network status and tasks -> click on set up a new connection or network -> connect to Internet -> No, create a new connection -> select Wireless and follow the instructions on the screen.

    Hope these helps.

    I got a new modem from AT & T because of my Wi - Fi connection failed yesterday. I have new installation internet connection and attempted to establish a wireless connection but the wireless network does not appear.
