Someone told me I have to use the NetBEUI protocal to network 2 computers here in my house. They have win 95 and win 98SE. The computer win 95 was just rebuilt (software) from scratch. The computer with 98 got upgraded to SE about 3 months ago. The computer with 98 lacks the NetBEUI protocal and neither of the computers has any other matching protocals (IPX/SPX and TCP/IP). I was told to install NetBEUI but I cannot find anywhere to install it from! I may just be missing something obveious or it may be extreemly envolved. Please let me knwo what to do, wether there is a site I can download it from, or a disk, or some way around this problem. Thanks

You should be able to add it right from the add protocols for the LAN network adapter. That is a normal protocol and the OS has it.

Right click your Network Neighborhood, select the properties page. You'll see three tabs, the first is the Configuration Tab. Right in the middle you'll see the ADD button. Click on this and a popup window will appear. This is where you add the component for NetBeui, choose PROTOCOL>MICROSOFT>NETBEUI an OK. The system might prompt you for the Win98 disk, have it handy near you. Reboot the PC and Netbeui is installed!
