I've just had an ancient Win 95 laptop given to me.
It has a network card (3Com) which In installed the drivers for and
which according to Device Manager is properly recognised.
I have three Win XP machines which talk to one another. All I did was to
buy a 4-way switch and some cables.
I *hoped* that the Win 95 machine would simply work, too. But I plug the
cable into the hub and nowt happens. When I boot the laptop says no
domain server is available to verify my password. Then it asks for my
password for MIcrosoft Networking. I have set the domain to match the
workgroup on the XP machines.
Network Neighbourhood shows only the laptop on the network. When I try
to find a computer it searches and says 0 are found.
I can see the different adapters, protocols etc in Network Properties.
Can anyone tell me what settings have a chance of working?
