a solution :

1. unload Vista - check your licensing & if you can roll back to XP > run roll back If licensing probs there are a couple of firms doing a roaring trade on ebay selling licensed copies of XP_pro

2. Having got all the machines back to XP - make sure ONLY SP2 is loaded on all machines - if you find SP3 unload it & then install SP2 and then all the MS patches excluding SP3

then > you can see all the networked and/or wirelessed machines you have
