First, a cross over cable is really best effort. Sometimes it works, but if it doesnt it's a real pain in the ass. Might want to setup a real network, a cross over cable will be slow anyway.
The error you mentioned usually happens with a bad physical connection or bad drivers. Make sure you're using the most up to date drivers for your 2 NIC's. Have you gone through the XP network wizard? If so what were the results, what did you select? I assume your using DCC (direct cable connection)? Have you tried adding ipx/spx on windows xp and adding ipx/spx to windows 98se? If you run through the xp network wizard itll auto firewall the connection and share files for u. Turn off the XP firewall in network connections. Make sure in the win98se network properties you have the following: client for ms networks dial-up adapter tcp/ip File and printer sharing Also make sure both pc's are using the same workgroup. What are the ip addresses for both pc's? In win9x you go to start > run > winipcfg > select your nic in the drop down list. In XP you go to start > run > cmd > click ok > type: ipconfig In network connections does it show your nIC? does it have a red x on it?? -gosh |

Honestly you should just go get a little hub... 100BaseT or even 10BaseT. Those are really cheap at compUSA lately. Try that out. If it is saying that the network cable is unplugged then it doesn't read the cable as having an "endpoint" be it a hub or the other computer.
Check your TCP/IP config and see if the IP Address's are both have the same first three octets, and the same subnet mask. If you are using internet connection sharing on one of them make sure you have the other setup as DHCP. |
