to chekc this;

on the bridge

Just access

access the

>1. Open the properties for your LAN connection

in the box on

TCP/IP in XP).
>3. Then install the following:

bottom 2 as well

>-NWLink NetBIOS
>-NWLink IPX\SPX...
>(Note the top 2 may be named diffently in 98)
>4. Restart the computer (try this on all machines)
