New Laptop Computers

How do I add a new HP laptop computer to an existing XP home network?
I have a new HP laptop running XP. I have two desktops running XP that are currently networked via a LinksysG (model WRT54GS v4). The network is encrypted with WEP. I have been able to add the laptop to the network and access the internet but I am having trouble accessing the shared printers and files on the desktops from the laptop. I can see the laptop from the other computers when I view the workgroup, but I can’t see the other computers when I view the workgroup from the laptop. When I have tried to add a shared printer I get a message that I may not have permission….contact the administrator). I have stepped through the help files several times with no success. PLEASE HELP!
work groups are such a pain the booty
here are a few things you can try
try this- make sure the same user name and password exist on the laptop and on the pc with the printers
try this- make sure the printer dirver is installed on the lap top
try this- right click on the printer from the pc it is attached to-choose properties-then the security tab-click add and find your account on the laptop and give your self permission to use the printer
hopefully one of those will work and those are not in any particular order
good luck
