Appletalk is not available as an option on WinXP.

What are you trying to achieve? If you are trying to reach an Mac over a network, you must purchase and install software on the Mac to make it appear as a Windows client. The most popular appears to be Dave by Thursby Software (www.thursby.com).

To go the other direction, you must purchase and install an Appletalk client on the XP machine.
Miramar Systems (www.miramar.com) sells PC MACLAN.

Hope this helps.

Sorry, got my apples and oranges mixed up. Dave provided Mac to PC connectivity. PC MACLAN provides PC to Mac connectivity.
