How do you share files between a windows 98se desktop with
a windows xp laptop?
Connect the Ethernet adapters of the two computers in one of these
ways:
1. With a crossover cable, or:
2. With two regular cables and a hub, switch, or router.
Run XP's Network Setup Wizard on both computers to make all the
required network settings:
XP ICS - Starting the Network Setup Wizard

Right click and share the desired disks and folders. Access the other
computer in Network Neighborhood or My Network Places.
For details, use the Help program on each computer or check these web
