XP and 98
This is a discussion about XP and 98 in the Windows Networking category; (setup) i have 3 comps 2 run 98 1 runs XP, (prob #1) the XP box does not see the two 98 so i cant send/trade files with the XP box. (prob #2) all 3 are on the net with Linksys dsl router but the one with XP will some times go internet ded and i got to restart and thats really starting to bug me now.

Have you created the XP networking floppy, and run that floppy on both of the 98 boxes?
OP
no i have not, how do i go about doing that? im new to xp
heres a update also, the XP box can see the two 98's but it cant get in em. it says when i click on both the 98's from XP " \\Jetro is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contant the administartor of this server to find out if you have access permissions. "
ill try that XP networking floppy thing and see what happens.

Have you created accounts with the exact username as both 98 boxes on the winxp machine? Are you using passwords or are the passwords blank?
OP
