share files :) But It look like I might need the drivers for the PCMCIA card. it had a Yellow Question mark next to it in the device manager. I need a cdrom for it just to get the drivers in the laptop. Unless theres another way?

Well you could try serial connect. PLIP I think it is. I know Windows supports it, though you need to have the cab files available to get it installed.

thanks Damaged for trying, I find it easier to just buy a cdrom for the laptop. Then I will be back to trying to network them both, Besides the laptop need a fresh install or win 98.
