This may help my first question. But on one of my
computers, there is no IPX/SPX protocol installed, and I
want to bind file and print sharing to that. I go to the
protocol tab under add, and it does'nt show up. On my
other computer there are several protocols to add, but
this on only has ATM Call Manager and ATM LAN Emulation
Client, neither of is what I need. Any idea how 1
computer can add the protocol and the other can't? I have
them pretty much set up the same, they are almost
identical excpet for a few components here and there.
Also, is this a network card software isssue or a
Microsoft networking software issue?

Thanks

I did exactly as it says to do, on the 2nd computer (the
one missing the protocols) and when I went to the "have
disk" part, it said "that specified location does not
contain information about your hardware". So, what now?

Thanks again
