have you enabled all the file sharing/printer sharing stuff on all PCs?
if you have done that then maybe windows is getting confused as to where to find it. you can make a shortcut directly to the shared folder by right clicking the desktop > new shortcut > then type the name of the folder with two slashes on from of the name(i would just put everything n the desktop for now).
xp sometimes doesn't find computers/folders though its automatic discovery tool, if you do it manually it is reliable.
when i try that i get a 'class not registered' error, if i can see the pc why cant i see the shared folders on it?
dang i forgot to tell you that you need to put the name of the pc in there too. like this:
//name of pc/name of folder/name of file
i used the search box and put in the ip of the pc i was trying to access and got that error '//192.168.0.121/stuff' i put that in the search box on my w7 pc and got the error
