Thanks Meir but I'm talking about 10 computers not just one.
The cards are brand new and working fine. As I said I can
ping each computer from any other and , in fact, if I use
"search" I can read any computer. They just don't show up in
" Network places".

Any ideas??

I had this same problem and I had to do two things. First shut down all firewalls, start them back up after you get the problem solved. Using search as you said and the make a shortcut on each desktop once the ping is ok.
