     This problems doesn't require MCSE knowledge.

    netbios+master+browser+problems
    Read about NetBIOS and how Windows networking works in a workgroup
    environment. Check the resource kit tools at Microsoft's FTP for a netbios
    monitor (will help you find the current master browser , if any, for your
    domain). Check the NBTSTAT tool.
    I need more information in order to start troubleshooting. What protocols
    are you using on the network? What networking model are you using, workgroup
    or domain? What operating system is installed on the rest of the machines?

    Regards,
    RCC
