Bob,

I also understand that some have problems networking their WinXP system with their Win98 system. I understand that NetBEUI can be installed from the WInXP installation disk, and this solves the problem for many. But some still have problems getting this to work. Any ideas why this is the case?

Following instructions from Microsoft which were identical to those in a link tc posted, I was able to use NetBeui without a hitch when using the pre release version of XP professional. After installing the final home version, following the same instructions yielded no network connectivity. I tried lots of things over a couple of days time. It came down to it just doesn't work, no matter what. So I gave up on Netbeui and have been purring along just great on TCP/IP, which is what MS wanted all along.

So you can add my name to both groups. Those for whom netbeui worked great when installed from the cd, and those who can't get it to work no matter what!
