Yesterday I formated my Desktop. Before the format my desktop was on a network with my laptop and everything was working fine. After the format I tried to reconnect the computers, but forgot that I had to allow access through ZoneAlarm. So I attemped to create a new network because I deleted the folders in my old network. After running network wizard on my laptop, nothing happens. There isn't a My Network Places to click on and I can't find any evidence that the computer was even on a network. My desktop seems to be setup, but I can't find my laptop on the network in My Network Places, but when I go to Entire Network\Microsoft Windows Network is shows both networks. The old network is no longer accessible, and the new network only shows my desktop on it. Is there anyway for me to delete both networks on my laptop, and find any networks on my laptop and delete those and start fresh? Or is there an easier solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I am running WXP

Run the network wizard on the laptop. Create a disk and use the disk on the desktop

Unfortunetly I have no floppy drive for my laptop. Last time I set up the network I did it without Network Setup Disk. Both computers are running WXP.
