Is it possible to network an old machine running win 95 to a new one running win xp. If it is possible can someone show me how or direct me to a good site that can explain it clearly. Both pc's have network cards and i have just recently bought a crossover cable from DS for $8 (bargin i thought).

Thanks
Ray

I would have a look at the Pf1 FAQ (Top-right), as there is a networking FAQ in there that should answer most of your questions.

Otherwise, feel free to ask, the Crossover cable is what you'll be needing, and $8 should get you 1, maybe two meters ;-)

Good luck, you'll probably need it ;-)

Cheers
