Tim,

As a word of caution, beware of advice that urges you to install
redundant protocols on your computer.

Windows Networking (including Windows ME) works fine with TCP/IP, and
NBT as an interface.  Installing IPX / SPX may provide a workaround, but
is unnecessary on an otherwise healthy system.

Fix the problem, not the symptom.

In the DNS name "saturn.homeDEST",  "homeDEST" is the DNS suffix.  Look
under TCP/IP Properties - Advanced, on the DNS tab.

Take a look at ipconfig for the ME and XP computers.  Start - Run -
"cmd".  Type "ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt" into the command window.
Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post.

Tim, you look at the web site that Carey gave, don't be surprised that
you can't follow Tip #1.  With a single exception, the settings that
it describes don't exist in Windows XP.  For details:

DEST might be coming from the firewall.  See if it has a host or
domain name defined.

A common reason that Windows ME can't browse the network is that the
user isn't logged on.  Is there a logon prompt when ME starts?  If so,
don't cancel it.  Complete the logon by entering a user name and,
optionally, a password.  If there's no logon prompt, click Start | Log
Off or Start | Shut Down | Close all programs... and log back on.  If
that makes network browsing work properly, the most likely fix is to
go to this registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Network\Real Mode Net

and delete the value named "AutoLogon", as shown here:

It might help to disable Browse Master on ME: Control Panel | Network

If those tips don't solve the problem, try these:

1. If the computers run the original or SP1 versions of Windows XP,
disable XP's built-in Internet Connection Firewall on local area
network connections -- it's for use only on a direct modem connection
to the Internet.  If they run SP2, enable the exception for file and
printer sharing in the Windows Firewall.  Disable and un-install all
other firewall programs while troubleshooting.  When un-installing a
firewall program, use the un-install procedure provided by the
manufacturer .  Don't use Control Panel | Add or Remove Programs,
which might not completely un-install it.

2. Use only one protocol for File and Printer Sharing.  If the network
needs more than one protocol, unbind File and Printer Sharing from all
but one of them.  Details here:

3.  Make sure that NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled on all computers.
Details here:

Enable NetBIOS Over TCP/IP (NetBT)
http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/troubleshoot/netbt.htm

4. Run "ipconfig /all" on XP and look at the "Node Type" at the
beginning of the output.  If it says "Peer-to-Peer" (which should
actually be "Point-to-Point") that's the problem.  It means that the
computer only uses a WINS server, which isn't available on a
peer-to-peer network, for NetBIOS name resolution.

If that's the case, run the registry editor, open this key:

  HLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netbt\Parameters

and delete these values if they're present:

  NodeType
  DhcpNodeType

Reboot, then try network access again.

If that doesn't fix it, open that registry key again, create a DWORD
value called "NodeType", and set it to 1 for "Broadcast" or 4 for
"Mixed".
