networking windows xp home and windows 98

[George]

I have three computers. Two of the computers are running
windows 98 and are networked together through a hub. I
just added a windows xp home computer to this network and
the windows 98 computers can not see the new box. The
network works just fine for the windows 98 computers but
not for the windows xp home computer. Is there a problem
networking windows 98 to windows xp home?

Thanks

It looks like we all have the same problem. My WindowsXP Network Setup
Wizard tells me I have to create a Network Setup Disk and run it on the
Windows 98 computer before I can connect. Then it tells me it cant make one
because my machine does not have a CD writer. Not True! It does have a CD
writer. What do I do now? Try making the disk on yours and see if it works.

I had no problem making a 3.5" disk file and ran this. I
still have the problem after doing this.
