| 160045 | 2003-07-26 09:54:00 | Try this: Open up My Computer on either PC now, and type the following in the Address Bar: \\Computernamehere\sharenamehere So, try on the 98 machine this: \\sigma\C$\ and see if that works :-) |

| 160046 | 2003-07-26 10:05:00 | Chill, where exactly is Address Bar PJ | Poppa John (284) | ||
| 160047 | 2003-07-26 10:07:00 | LOL, Okay... Click on View -Toolbars Select Address Bar If it still doesnt appear, its likely just hidden over the right-side of the window. If you STILL cant find it, open up Internet Explorer and use the address bar in there, its the same thing :-) Let us know how ya get on Cheers Chill. |

| 160049 | 2003-07-26 10:27:00 | Ouch... Okay, from the 98 machine, we're going to establish if it's still connected to the net or not: Click Start Run command now, type: ping 210.48.100.45 This will ping pressf1, if you get a response, then its still online, at least to a certain degree! It should say something like: Pinging 210.48.100.45 with 32 bytes of Data: Reply from 210.48.100.45: bytes=32 time=150ms (this will change...) TTL=58 If it says something like: Request Timed Out or: Remote Host not found Then you're not connected at all :-( Post back with the results! Cheers Chill. |

| 160050 | 2003-07-26 10:28:00 | Chill further to above. With 98 in Maryann's name the LAN symbol does not show on her screen but shows as "enabled " on the XP, 100Mbps. PJ | Poppa John (284) | ||
| 160051 | 2003-07-26 10:34:00 | Chill. "Request timed out" three timmes then something which was too quick to read.PJ | Poppa John (284) | ||
| 160052 | 2003-07-26 10:37:00 | This means that the cables are connected correctly at the very least! If you un-plug the cable, then it'll popup on the screen saying the cable may haev been removed etc. Because the hardware is all working, you know its just a problem with the TCP/IP Settings somewhere.. Do you have ZoneAlarm by any chance, or any other firewall apart from the WinXP Firewall? |

| 160053 | 2003-07-26 10:42:00 | Okay.. so its not connected.. try: Ping Simga_IP_Address_here You can find the XP PC's IP address (If you cant remember it) by clicking Start -Run type in: cmd type: ipconfig /all Jot down the XP's IP addy and run over to Dell and Ping the XP machine by going Start -Run command hit enter and then type the command in now, coz it wont disappear on you ;-) |

| 160054 | 2003-07-26 10:45:00 | Chill. Unplug theXover cable & the no cable message comes up. Put it back in & message goes. No firewall other than WinXP which I think is "On". PJ |
