You're pinging their ip addresses not their computer names

ok, do an ipconfig /all on each machine (from cmd prompt), make sure that their ip addresses are of the same range, so 169.x.x.x with a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0

Actually, if they're 169.x.x.x addresses you can post their ipconfig information.
