Is it possible to network two computers, one running Xp
and the other running 98, together without using a hub or
some sort of adapter.
 
yes...but you will need 2 network adapters in main computer...one to
internet..other to second computer....unless your on dial up........use the
computer that runs xp and run home networking wizard.....make sure your
using a crossover cable(usually yellow)not a straight through when hooking
your network card from the piggyback computer to the computer with the net
connection....the wizard will ask if you like to make a floppy for the win
98 machine,,,,,run it on second computer..may have to run it couple
times.....
