Need NetBEUI

In trying to set up networking, the NetBEUI and IPx/SPx Compatible Protocol
do not appear as options to add. What do I need to do to find them or make
them available? It doesn't seem to be a driver download issue, or is it?.
I'm using a Marvell Yukon 88E8050 PCI-E ASF Gigabit Ethernet Controller built
into the Intel 915GEV motherboard.

After posting my need, I found the solution and want to let anyone who may
have experienced the problem that there's a solution. Actually the needed
protocols are available. You just have to highlight the right service, which
is the TCP/IP. Then, when you click "install" or "add" the additional
protocols are listed. Perhaps it seems obvious, but it didn't to me.

Another part of my problem was being prompted for a password when I tried to
access my main computer from my desktop. To fix this, I had to turn off the
password requirement in Control Panel. Since I had networking at one time,
the configuration of needing a password was evidently changed by something,
probably the installation of a security related program.

After adding the protocols to both computers and turning off the password
access on the desktop, networking between the two computers is working great.
Thanks to everyone who offered help on this subject.
