XP Pro and IPX

How can I install the IPX Protocol in XP Pro? When I go to the add it in the Protocols its not listed. Any ideas?

I can see that in the list and I can install aswell...

May be its already installed...

Your NIC is not installed properly...

Cheers...

The Nics installed and working, and I know IPX isn't already installed as I can't connect to Warcraft 2 Games

That's very interesting because I can connect to the games using IPX like DEMONSTAR etc etc...

Can you use all other functions of NIC like, connection sharing or anything...???

What kind of NIC do u have...??? Brand name and model please...

Did XP installed it by itself you did it manually...???

Cheers...

I can use ICS from the Host Computer, but I've never tried it on this one.
Intel 8255x-Based PCI Ethernet Apdator 10BaseT

It gives me the option of finding it my self. And ideas what it might be on?

XP came with the comp.

I was just thinking about compatability issue but as u told it came with it so there is no issue...

Tell you my problem...

I have 2 NICs and I couldn't share my net connection b4 so I thought its the other NIC creating the problem and I was wrong when I removed the other NIC.

Then I dropped paying attention to it and later some stage my XP crashed...!!! ( Because of some weird experiments of mine...hi hi )

So I repaired my XP or lets say I upgraded it and now every thing is cool...

It must be a conflict or improper configuration...

Cheers...

All I think it is, is that IPX Setup files weren't included with XP, and I need to get them either online, or from the XP CD, or maybe even Microsoft.

I'm about to go on a hunt at Microsoft actually....

Try the MS website and hunt for it...

If can't find any thing then try to remove NIC and put it in a different slote or try to clear the IP Stack or repair XP as I did...

Good luck with it...

Cheers...

I can't remove the Network card actually. I'm using a Laptop and I don't really want to go pulling it apart.

I guess it doesn't matter that much anyway, I just got bored and decieded to play abit of WarCraft.

LAPTOP................that's pain in A***
