    The machine that you are trying to connect to, does it have "file and printer" sharing enabled? Do you have any files, printers, or directories shared on the target computer? If you don't have any share on the computer you are trying to reach, then, you will get that type of error.
    As far as "My Network Places," it can be as assuring as Kerry or Bush. (unreliable).
    Try this:
    On the new computer, click on Start -> Run
    Type "\\computername" (without quotes, where computer name is the name of the computer you are trying to reach.
    or
    Type "\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" (without quotes, where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip address of the computer you are trying to reach.
    See if that works.
