    Win98DualBootWinXP and Win98 Network

    I have two computers.
    Computer A has WinXP and Win98 on a dual boot.
    Computer B has Win98.

    I networked A to B, with TCP/IP when A is running XP, and set up internet connection sharing.

    I now want to network A and B when A is running 98, using IPX, because I want to play old games over a network and they don't get TCP/IP, and I can't figure out why it won't work.

    Any ideas?

    Did you hook up the spon connection to interface with the ODI port? It's essential that you remember to hook up the WAD4 serial in order to reference the ODI on a cross-platform system. Just because they're both Windows, doesn't always mean they're not considered cross-platform in the ODI interface.

    Wow. I must have been loaded when I said that. Because I have no idea what I'm talking about either.

    Hmm. That's a toughie. Can you give us a readout of your network settings in 98?
