I have 2 Win98 SE machines, A Gateway Win XP Home edition desktop & a Dell Win XP Home edition laptop. The XP machines can see one of the Win 98 machines but not the other. Both Win 98 machines can see each other. Neither Win 98 SE machine can see either Win XP machine.

All have the same workgroup. All machines access the internet using ethernet via a router/wireless access point and DSL (wireless 802.11b in the case of the Dell).

Any suggestions as to why each machine can not see all others???
