Not laptops, Brand new Dell Dimensions. Diagnosis & repair finds nothing wrong. Swapping network ports with a working machine does not make any difference.

If so do a Diagnosis and Repair from the Network and Sharing Center. You might want to try that anyway. I have had that happen with some buggy support software from a vendor running the Diagnosis and Repair usually fixes whatever the issue is.

When browsing the network to find printers, they see none. When browsing AD they see the printers, but cannot connect. It's an SBS 2003 domain. All pc's are Domain members. They have no issues with anything else. They have 6 identical pc's, all bought from the same vendor at the same time, the other 3 are fine. They also have 6 XP machines. No issues with them at all.
