EM 0 Posted January 17, 2001 ...my two Win98 computers won't talk to each other nicely but my two Win2k computers can talk to both. I have four computers total, two Win98SE and two Win2k. Each Win98SE machine can talk to both of the Win2k machines and can see the other Win98SE machine. But I cannot do any sort of file transfer between the 98 machines without a message coming up after a minute or so that the network resource no longer exists. Using TCP/IP and static IP addresses. Any thoughts? Ed Share this post Link to post
Cynan 0 Posted January 17, 2001 Try installing NetBIOS/BEUI, thats what Windows uses for its file sharing. --Cynan. [This message has been edited by Cynan (edited 17 January 2001).] Share this post Link to post
EM 0 Posted January 22, 2001 I was hoping not to have to do that since many games etc require tcp/ip for multiplayer. Much simpler to only have to deal with tcp/ip then to add all the other stuff and then hope it works. Anybody know how to fix this problem? Ed Share this post Link to post
clutch 1 Posted January 22, 2001 Remove and restore the IP stacks on the 98 boxes. I have had to do this for similar issues, and it fixes it. ------------------ Regards, clutch Share this post Link to post
