Binding dual ethernet cards

This is a discussion about Binding dual ethernet cards in the Windows Networking category; I want to open two connection between the two computers in my room. Each machine has 2 10mbps cards in it, one card from each is already part of the household domain. I want to increase the transfer speed the 2 comps, but can't find a second 100mbps card, so I'm using a 10/100 and a 10 for the second connection.

What I need is to set the comp up to use both cards for transfers, so I get 20mpbs, not 10. I know it can be done, and I've seen help on it for NT4 and linux, but I'm lost as to where to go. I know it can be done with regular modems as well.
 
I'm running Win2k Pro SP2 on one machine, and Win98 SE on the other.

hmmm, I'm going to need something to do it with at the other end though, on the Win98 machine.

Unfortunately, I have none with respect to binding NICs. Also, I have never felt that great about the network underpinnings of Win98, so any effort bind multiple cards under that OS would seem questionable at best.
 
BTW, do you really think my hand is pretty? Who told you that?

I was looking more along the lines of 3rd party software most likely, and I meant HandY, oops
 
Anyone have any ideas?
