Can't connect to a workgroup

[lostsoul62]

I have two Windows 7 computers that belong to the workgroup named "workgroup" and when I click on to the other computer on Network Map it ask for my Nework User name which I put in and the password which I printed out but it doesn't work so what steps did I leave out?

Beside the sharing function you need all computers to part of the same workgroup name as mentioned. Each computer has to have name also. Like Grandpa, family, basement, laptop or what ever.

You need to use the login password for the specific machine you want to connect to, not the homegroup password that you printout.
