VIDEO – How to find Other computers on your network in Windows seven
When I set up a new computer in my house, I immediately network it with the others and then check to see if everything is ok. However when I wanted to look for the other computers on the network I had just setup, it was a little more difficult to find them. To find see all of the computers on your network is different from both Windows XP and Windows Vista. One main reason I wanted to access the other computers is to see what files they were sharing.
Windows seven still has the Network and Sharing Center, and this is where you will have to go to find the link to the other computers. Watch this video below to see more details.






Thanks for the video. After I replaced my router I lost network browsing in both the XP and W7 machines. I can get online and print to shared printers but not see network shares. In XP I used Search for Computers to add the Public folders of the W7 machines as network places. Do you know how to do the same in W7? The network map doesn’t show the other machines at all.
hi DG
I have to tell you that I have not even needed to do anything with a Windows Seven computer…It just hooks in itself… Thats if you have everything on automatic. But I have a Windows Ultimate and I dare say it will depend on the version you have.
Maybe you should try running the Windows XP network setup wizard so it can let the windows seven computer know where it is…Also you might want to check your firewall settings and the router settings, and file sharing settings…
