File Sharing Problem

I hope this is the appropriate newsgroup for this issue. =20
If not, please direct me to the correct one.

I have 2 home computers hooked-up to a wireless network=20
via a Linksys router. I use the network for Internet,=20
printer and file sharing. One computer is a desktop HP=20
with Win ME; the other is an IBM laptop with Win 98. =20
Recently, I have not able to use the file-sharing=20
feature. (The Internet and printer sharing capabilities=20
still work O.K.).

When I try to access the desktop files from the laptop, I=20
get the following when I click on the shortcut:

“The drive or network connection that the shortcut ‘HP C=20
Drive.Ink’ refers to is unavailable. Make sure that the=20
disk is properly inserted or the network is available and=20
then try again.”

When I try to access the laptop from the desktop, I get=20
the following:

“The shortcut ‘IBM Drop Box.Ink’ refers to a location =
that=20
is unavailable. The location could be on a hard drive on=20
this computer, on a network, or on a different computer on=20
your home network. Check to make sure that the disk is=20
properly inserted, or that you are connected to the=20
Internet or home network, and the try again.”

When I click on O.K., I then get the following:

C:\WINDOWS\NetHood\laptop on Ibm refers to a location that=20
is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this=20
computer, on a network, or on a different computer on your=20
home network. Check to make sure that the disk is=20
properly inserted, or that you are connected to the=20
Internet or home network, and then try again. If it still=20
cannot be locate, the information might have been moved to=20
a different location.

Both computers are on when I try this and it appears the=20
network is up and running, as I am able to access the=20
Internet and printer from both computers.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
