BINGO! right on the dot! Thanks dnetmhz! I got it working after you reminded me to install ipx protocols.

Is there some way to connect these two computers thru a Netgear router? I have them connected, and file sharing is set. Both computers are named to the same workgroup, but i cant see the other computer! one computer is win98se, and the other is win95sr1

Win2K is a great OS, i like it very much. I'd keep it if i can but I'm a beginner at networking so it's a little complicated for me. The partitions are Fat32, so they're unchanged when i installed win2K. it doesnt seem like it's un-installable so far!

Hi! Jus installed win2000 with dual boot option in win98. Dont like win2k very much, so how would i go about uninstalling it? THANKS!

Yup, flathead screwdriver. but be gentle, u dont want to slip off the clip and then chisel your mobo right in half only to have to buy a new motherboard and heatsink like i did. no. just kidding.

"did you go to hollywood upstairs medical college too?!"

Can anyone tell me why the Start button in Win98 turns white or looks scratched up after 10 minutes of booting up? Also, the vertical Windows98 logo gets scratched up too. Any fix to this? Thanks -Albert Win98 SR2 AMD K6-3 428 280MB SDRAM eVGA GeForce2 MX

oh no.. not hard labor again. Sounds like there isnt 1 out there that fits the FIC w/o bending/shaving?

I was actually able to get the Orb onto a couple of SS7 motherboards in the past. It's true they have a VERY tight fit, but I still would like to get an Orb that fits for the FIC if that's possible.

Little help please. I'm looking to get a golden orb for a FIC 503+ socket 7 motherboard. I got a golden orb before, but for those of you who know and own a FIC 503+, there are resistors/transistors/capacitors (?) standing up right next to the socket, and therefore i was unable to use it. Is...

ender78, how does it perform "really well"? Does does it transfer more bytes per second? the Netgear EN104tp came as a kit w/ two network cards and its own power adapter which i thought was not too shabby for ~$40. -coke!

the computers are not separated far from each other at all. actually, they're right next to each other. however, they are each using 15' cat5 ethernet cables, this way i can extend them in case i need to. i'll take a look into a switched network. thanks so much for your advice... all of you and...

ethernet is bad? I see it is a cost effective means of transfering files and sharing a analog internet connection between two home networked computers. What do you recommend that would be better? shorter cat5 cables and a 100 megabit hub?

yeah. i've connected 2 computers to this 4 port hub. but i could have sworn i got these two computers to transfer files at 10 megabytes per second before! was that just a glitch? moral of the story? "10baseT = 1.25 mbytes/sec and 100baseT = 12.5 mbytes.sec" thanks!

we love you Mr. X!
