I am trying to network my 98 machine with a xp machine via a crossover cable. the two machines are not seeing each other when i browse the network. the settings appear to be correct as far as the workgroup and all that. this is not the first time this has happened. is there any reason for this and is there a fix.

When you set up ICS,did you setup the computer name that you would be connecting to

Click Start->Search->Find Files or Folders,when this pane opens,look where the column choices are what you want to search,usually in bottomleft corner,select Computers and then type in the computer name,now click search
