Default ME Networking between two PC's-loused up

I had networking running fine between two ME PC's- then had to reformatmat
one of them. Set file and printer sharing on the PC reformatted, tried to
connect to the other PC, and it happens successfully sporadically. Now, on
BOTH PC's when I go into My computer Places on either machine, they hang. I
can see one PC's C drive from the one I reformatted, but the other one can't
see the new PC's drvive reliably, and it still hangs when I look at Entire
Network to find the new computer. (Is it hanging or is it just taking a long
time- I wait for 5 minutes or so).

Thanks for your help in advance.

Carey,

I don't want to sound ignorant, but I don't come to these sites often. What
is "Tip #1 on all PC's?

Thanks,

Dave

Carey-

You're wonderful!! After clearing my head, I figured out you were talking
about your URL. Info there is great! Thanks. It looks like you put a lot
of effort into that.
