| 140928 | 2003-05-03 04:52:00 | Hi I'm new to this network game and have a need to send messages on a small network using Win98 and Win Xp computers, are there programs already on these machines to do this job. Thanks. |

On the Win 98 computer you need to start up Winpopup: Start > Run > type winpopup type out your message and send it to the name of the computer on your network . For the Win XP computer go to Start > Run > type net send [computer name] [message] then press enter . Alternatively, send from a command box . |
