XP and 98SE limitations
In article , "Joe Johnston"
wrote: "Steve Winograd [MVP]" wrote in message .. . You did well to un-install NetBEUI. Nothing in Windows networking requires it, and running more than one protocol on a network is likely to cause problems, especially when XP is involved. Try simply disabling the Computer Browser service on the XP machine: 1. Right click My Computer, and click Manage. 2. Double click Services and Applications. 3. Double click Services. 4. Double click Computer Browser. If the Service status is Started, click Stop. 5. Set the Startup type to Disabled. Thanks for the input, Steve. I have saved a copy of your post for use when an XP machine gets added to my home (or our office) network. Joe Johnston You're welcome, Joe. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see. I'm sorry, but I don't answer questions addressed directly to me in E-mail or news groups.
