"The default workgroup name in Windows Vista has been changed to WORKGROUP. In Windows® XP Home Edition, the default workgroup name is MSHOME."
I'm running Vista and the other 2 running XP and seem to remember having this problem.
Yeah, I was helping a friend and it was that simple if I recall. There was also a reg fix to a related issue with the sharing locations. I am trying to look that up too.
