6258 2000-09-09 00:32:00 I've recently been attempting to set up a Direct Cable Connection between a laptop and a desktop, both running Win98. The desktop is set up as the host, but when I try to log the laptop in as a guest it brings up the following: 'Password and Username verified... Looking for shared files... Unable to display shared files of host, type in name of host computer.' I do so, and get the message 'Cannot find the host computer'

I've searched through all your previous postings which referred to a website for this problem, however the site has since been taken down. If anyone remembers what the solution is it would be much appreciated.

Yours,
Tony Baird
