Default windows 98 and xp connection super problem!!!

I have had same problem as Kevin, although I was able to
ping the two machines & I was able to view files on XP
Laptop from my 98SE Computer. I wish MS gave more
information on this. How about it Bill ???

same problem (w/ XPHome and WinME machines). Try
installing IPX protocol, File and printer sharing

service,
and Msoft client for Netware Networks (dont use

networking
wizard; don't setup xp machine as ICS / firewalled
machine). If you get it to work, please post (I cant get
alternate client installed, despite msoft documentation
which says I should be able to).

well i've wasted over 10 hours of searching how to

connect my windows
xp laptop to the windows 98 desktop but nothing

worked.Previously i
had windows 2000 in my laptop add the connection between

the two was
fine.
Now i've tried everything.I'm using tcp/ip with defined

ip
numbers.Same workgroup name.The drives are shared.No

firewall either.i
cannot ping the two machines from each other.I'm

desperate!!! What can
i do???
