I've just vaguely looked at the thread and I dont know if anyone has mentioned this but here it goes. I guess first I should ask, on The 98 machine, you see absolutely nothing on the "Network Neighborhood" as far as the other computer? Its possible (huge guess) that it has something to do with the security policy in the actual XP machine. I know that on XP and 2k machines you need encrypted passwords and certain other things to be disabled in order for it to join a workgroup correctly, perhaps should check that?

Other than that, without any error messages I'm out of ideas. Perhaps try accessing the xp machine through the command line or the run box? Hope this helps!

Cheers!

DUN will do that too It reinstall client, dialup adapt, and TCP/IP. Oh, and SPD is related to memory error/eeprom
