Hi,
I have a two system network, on is XP home and the other
is Win 98. There is a net gear 100bms switch and netgear
100mbs NIC card in the Win 98 system. The XP system has
a built in 100bms NIC. network works fine for file and
printer sharing, but fails for internet share.
The xp system is the internet host and connects to the
internet through dial up. That works fine also, but
sharing from the Win 98 fails. The Win 98 side says it
can not see the network or server. The netsetup disk
made by setting up xp for internet sharing fails after a
restart saying it can not find the NIC card.
Can 98 (not second edition or ME) work with xp for this?
What have I missed?
Thanks,
Max Chandler
