I checked the ro,uter, both PC's have DHCP connections, ethernet cards working, CAT5 fine, a strange SPD(serial presence detect)
error presents itself upon POST...

Both see internet, & I can ping each from the other, what else could cause a win98se PC, to not see a new XPpro notebook?

Anyone??? Obviously they have the same workgroup, for the XPpro puter to print from & get files off the win98se, but not xppro to 98se?

TIA,

Jonny C
