Hi,

If your LAN cards required some drivers to be installed from a floppy
disk etc then the installation may have installed a separate customised
TCP/IP protocol. If you have this in your network section of control
panel and also the regular TCP/IP protocol in there as well then  I
found this can cause  computers not to be seen. I found that leaving in
the customised version of TCP/IP  got things working for me.

While i'm at i'm having another problem. I have two system running win
98SE which i want to network. I'm using an Ethernet Lan Card on both
machine. Any of the 2 machines can't see their peers in the Network
Neighborhood.

My Ethernet Lan Card is bounded by TCP/IP setting of 198.160.100.1 for
one and 198.160.100.2 for the second one, with a SubMask of
255.255.255.0 for both. I use Full10 Mode for one while the other one is
set to Auto. Some times i've to set both toAuto as it will not get pass
over the Windows Splash Screen and i'll have to reboot using Safe Mode
with Network...

Can someone give me some tips about what i'm doing wrong?

Thanking you beforehand
