Does anyone know why a win98 system can't see a Xp pro system on a network. Xp sees the win98 system. I installed the files onto win98 system that xp said I needed to ran the wizard. Selected to share a file. Guest account is on.

Hi, You need to set up a user account on the WinXP system that is the same as the Computer Name of the Win98 system. Then when the Win98 system logs on, it will see the WinXP system. Hope this helps.
