Baff2 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Insert your XP disc into the 98 machine and let it configure it for you Automatically. Also use the automated wizard for the XP machines. Disable any firewalls/ clear LAN operations with them for the purpose of testing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j w 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Or it's just that you need drivers for every single thing you use with Win98, au the contrary from XP wich is plug and play. Check if the computer itself supports the network-card (if you've recently installed a new one), or if it has any problems with the router you're using. Just a theory JW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
