PC1 is running WinXP Professional, PC2 is running WinXP Professional and PC3 is running WinXP Home. Administrator account password is the same on three computers. PC1 and PC2 connect directly to a wireless router by Cat5 and PC3 connects wirelessly. Trying to access the administrative shares on PC1 and PC2 from the run dialog on PC3. \\PC1\C$ and other administrative shares asks for a password, used to work with <Administrator> and <Password> but now gives an access denied message "<share> is not accessible. You might not have permission to access this network resource. Contact your network administrator...." Only changes made recently was to change the NTFS permissions on a different drive, and the Administrator can still access the drive locally. \\PC2\C$ and other administrative shares says that "The network path cannot be found. Any ideas?

I have fixed the problem connecting to PC1 by running 'netsh winsock reset' and 'netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt' at the command prompt on PC3, but the problem remains when I try to connect to PC2.
