I ended up just reinstalling the OS. However, on the help forum where I originally posted about my problem, someone suggested running an operating system file integrity checker and provided a link. You may want to check that out. The forum post is here:

Turning off the firewall let me ping the machine. Synergy actually worked, but it annoyed me that I couldn’t ping the win machine…

Thanks for the help and the quick reply! :)

Try turning off the Windows Firewall – it might be blocking ping attempts.

My windows laptop is connected to my macbook with a cross-over cable, but I can’t ping the windows machine from my mac. However pinging my macbook from the windows laptop works like a charm.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

I’m still using my setup regularly and I love how it blows people’s minds when they stop by my office and see my cursor move from the windows machine onto the Mac screen. It’s like magic!

I set this up at my office and it works great. Thanks :)
