Tried Fixes, Still Not Able Recognize XP Host Closed

Question

I have tried a couple dozen different fixes listed on several forums (including Kioskea) and my network still does not recognize my XP desk top host computer.  I also have another XP desk top and three Windows 7 laptops.  It is a wireless setup and when I try to change the IP address on the host, I get completely dropped and end up restoring my system. 


The other fixes all seem to not cause problems (although I have had to undo a few such as TCP/IP v6 and NetBIOS), but likewise do not solve the problem.  I can see the network and all the computers, printers, and files from all five systems.  It is just everything but the host.


I am not a technician, so I have avoided the more complicated fixes involving editing the registers, changing the browser setups, etc.  Can anyone help?
