ALSO POSTED THIS IN WIN95/98 JUST IN CASE
Windows XP install
Thanks to those who answered my earlier queries, (DrSean & others), re installing XP Professional.
I managed to successfully install it on 12 out of 14 PII machines with 64 Mb or Ram.
MORE QUERIES:
On the win98 machines still in the workgroup they log onto the workgroup ok and see the workgroup, i.e. the require a username, password and the workgroup name.
The XP machines see the workgroup ok, can share printers etc ok but on logon they will not accept the correct password. Instead a user can log on without entering any password. Also the logon screen only has a username and password field – no workgroup name is present.
I suspect the XP mahines are not set to log onto the workgroup??
Any ideas how to force them to use a workgroup logon.
The Win98 machines are set to a client for MS Networks logon with a logon to a NNT domain selected but i can’t find a similiar screen in XP.
Thanks in anticipation.
mick!
