Wondering if anyone can help here?

Running a PC with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, cannot seem to do anything with Windows Home Group.

Nothing happens when I click on "View or print the homegroup password"

If I attempt to change the password I always get the message "Windows cannot set up a homegroup on this computer"

If I click on "leave the homegroup" I get the message "Windows could't remove your computer from the homegroup"

Anyone have any idea?
 
Some time back this PC was set up as a Homegroup as the upstairs HTPC accessed files from this.

When you click on homegroup it states "This computer belongs to a homegroup"

Sadly though I have absolutely no access or control over "Homegroup" settings? Which is doing my head in as I have two other PC's I want to connect to this via homegroup. It does not even connect via network as it seems to see my other PC as a media device?

The other two machines do not see any homegroup related to this PC (or the PC) on the network, so cannot access this machine.
