Can't display all computers within my peer to peer workgroup.
I have various issues communicating among three computers (win7, XP, win98) in a workgroup on my peer to peer home network. The network has functioned well in the past but apparently I have changed something.
One symptom -- right now I am looking at the workgroup with Windows Explorer on the XP computer. With Windows Explorer I select the workgroup icon and click its (+) in the left pane. All three computers display below the workgroup. But only two of the three computers display in the right pane.
Explorer on the XP.
LEFT PANE:

______Servicco
________Homebuilt PC (Homebuilt) OS=XP-Pro, Ethernet to router
________Dell Studio 15 (Studio15) OS=WIN7-Pro, laptop, WIFI to route
________Northgate (tower) OS=WIN98, Ethernet to router
RIGHT PANE:
________Homebuilt PC (Homebuilt)
________Dell Studio 15 (Studio15)
Windows Explorer on the WIN7
(It sees only itself (Studio15) in the left and right panes of Explorer)
Windows Explorer on the WIN98
(It sees only itself (tower) in the left and right panes of Explorer)
What could be my problem that the three computers cannot see each other?
