I have three computers networked through Windows 95, using twisted pair cables. Of the three, two of them are able to see each other, and the third. However, they cannot access the third. I get a message that says, '\\Bing is not accessable. The computer or sharename could not be found.' [bing, naturally, is the name of the computer in question]. The third computer can only see itself. Bing has sharing correctly enabled, and was working fine using coaxial cable previously.

If you are positive that the software end is setup correctly including both share boxes being checked in the Network, then you might want to look into hardware. If your software came with it, run a diagnostic check on the Bing card. If that checks out OK - do you have any light at the rear of the card? See if they are on. Try a switching cables from a good PC over to Bing. Try switching cable to another slot on hub. -- Business: Ron Schenone Computer Consultant PC Repair and Upgrades schenone@technologist.com Home: Ron and Jackie Schenone schenone@mlode.com

I have a similar situation like yours.... except that I got two PCI network cards who can see each other but the third one is ISA which don't seems to be compatible with the two PCI ones..... All three have Win95 running..... But if I have the ISA one running on Win 3.11 it will work..... Dominic....

MOST LIKELY YOUR DRIVER IS NOT SETUP PROPERLY FOR THE ISA CARD UNDER WIN95. PLUG&PRAY DOESNT ALWAYS WORK. IF THE CARD YOU HAVE IS NOT PLUG&PLAY THEN MAKE SURE NOTHING ELSE IS USING THE SAME RESOURSES AS THE ISA ETHERCARD. ONE THING WIN95 LOVES TO DO ON NON PLUG&PRAY CARDS WHEN INSTALLING WIN95 IS TO DETECT THE CARD AND ITS PORT ADDRESS AND THEN RANDOMLY (SARCASM) PICK AN INTERUPT NUMBER. THE CARD WILL BE REPORTED OK UNDER THE SYSTEM CONTROL PANEL/DEVICE MANAGER, BUT THE LACK OF INTERUPT NUMBER WILL FOREVER GIVE YOU A -CANNOT ACCESS NETWORK- ERROR. YOU WILL HAVE TO MANUALLY CHANGE THE INTERUPT NUMBER TO THE CORRECT ONE, AND IF THERES A CLASH AT THE CORRECT CARD INTERUPT, RE-ALLOCATE ONE OF THE INTERUPTS.
