Hi
I have winXP SP2. When I open the Network place and click on a Win98
computer (not a shortcut created by WinXP), I get a message saying that I
can't access this computer. However, if I do \\ComputerName, then it lets me
get in. I also have another win98 computer but it's ok when I click on its
icon in the Network place. How can I fix this problem? Or I did somethign
wrong on the Win98 troubled computer? Thanks in advance.
