Networking XP Pro with Win98 Se
LockedI am having troubles trying to setup a home network using XP Pro on 1 box and 98SE on 2 others. The 98 boxes are wireless and one is a laptop. The XP Pro is now FAT32 as is the other boxes, at first my XP box was NTFS and I know that was the original problem. Reformatted the XP and reinstalled last week using FAT32.
I have run the XP Networking Wizard several times with no results. The main problem that I am having is that either the XP box doesn’t show up in Network Neighborhood, or it does and doesn’t allow access. I have created an account on all machines with matching usernames and passwords. I can see the other machines from the XP box though.
All I really want to be able to do is print to my good printer attached to the XP box from the laptop. So far, I have not been able to do this. I am really at a loss as to why this is not working.
ANY thoughts?
Thanks! Roger
