another XP 98 QUESTION
This is a discussion about another XP 98 QUESTION in the Windows Networking category; heres what i got: laptop running 98SE desktop running XP both in same workgroup both can see eachother in the net. hood everything is fine right? question is: sometimes they dont talk/see eachother, and it takes a couple refreshes, sometimes even 10-20 minutes for it to finally just pop up in the net.
heres what i got:
laptop running 98SE
desktop running XP
both in same workgroup
both can see eachother in the net.hood
everything is fine right?
question is:
sometimes they dont "talk/see" eachother, and it takes a couple refreshes, sometimes even 10-20 minutes for it to finally just pop up in the net. hood. why is that?
is it b/c my crossover cable could have a bad connection/wiring, or something wrong with my hardware? it works sometimes, but sometimes it doesnt cooperate. how do i get around this?
THANKS A WHOLE BUNCH =) ;(

its just networking between NT and 9x sux . i dunno how to fix it. so i upgraded all my machines to win2k. but i guess u could try netbui or another protocol.
