I have a 3com ethernet III ISA (3c509/3c509B) card in one of packard bell machines with win 98se and for some reason whenever I turn the computer off I always have to re-load the drivers. I can re-boot all day long with no problem, its only when I turn the machine off. Anyone seen an issuse...

I just installed a Dlink Air 520 wireless PCI card in an old Win98 machine. The device shows up correctly installed in the Device Manager. But, when I go to the network setup and try to add an adapter, it is not on the list and can't be found. I need to add the adapter and then bind the...

Hi, we have still some windows 98 clients. We mount some samba shares (from linux server) on them. The problem is that we cannot mount the share using its DNS name but have to use IP address. It doesn't work if we use DNS name. Does anybody know why ?

When I'm trying to log my win98 into a win2000 computer a logon window pops up that has one line that says Resource \\Name\lPC andn then another line for the password. My other computers only need to type the administrator name to log into the win2000 computer (No password needed). How do I...

I'm such a rusty fool. I upgraded a friend's PC from Win98 to Win98SE using the upgrade CD that came with the tower (it's a late-'90s Compaq) and since then, the computer hasn't been able to find the modem. With my own network, I've got screenshots and printouts of all my settings in the event...

Has anyone had any luck networking Win98SE with Vista (simple workgoup, not a domain)? It keeps asking for a password, but nothing works. (I've also posted on the Vista board, but no response.)

How can I connect two Win98 machines to DSL and to each other? What are my options i. e. routers etc? TIA MM

I've successfuly installed a network printserver connected to the parallel port of my printer, but I'm stuck at the last step of installing the printer driver for the printer. I can define the printer port on the network but when I go to install the printer driver using the Printer Wizard, my...

Somebody just gave me an OLD NEC Ready 440T laptop to use for some light word processing. The trouble is that it doesn't have a NIC card. Given the age of it, finding a PCMCIA Ethernet card, either wired or wireless that has compatible drivers for Windows 98 First Edition is difficult. Could...

Is there perhaps a good tutorial hidden away somewhere on Win98se networking? For example how a browser would be instructed to use a particular network or how the bindings work? Thanks.

I am running a small workgroup network where a Windows 98 desktop machine and a Windows XP laptop machine are connected to a DSL router that has a built-in or integrated switch. The windows 98 machine is providing two main resources: A shared folder and a shared printer. The printer is directly...

Ihan alkukevennykseksi tapaus JiiPee. Kaveri hihkui innoketta nettiin ja kertoili pääsevänsä Olkiluotoon "oikeisiin ydintöihin" turbiinihalliin. Ihasteli suurella volyymilla, miten komennus oli hänen elämänsä täyttymys. No sitä kokeneemmat koetti toppuuttaa, ettei punaisena meuhkaava...

Hey Folks, I know pretty much nothing about networking. I have 2 pcs on win98se I'd like to swap data between. Both have Ethernet cards and work with my new belkin wireless router which is used mostly for my vista laptop. I understand from reading posts the vista machine wouldn't interface...
