• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    Enabling Simple File Sharing didn't help any, I still got the same IPC$ 'password incorrect' problem I had before on the Win98 machine. I even made sure that the security policy for allowing certain users to connect to the XP box over the network included the Guest account, and that everything...

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    The trouble with using the Wizard is that it likly is set up to use Simple File Sharing or Simple Sharing, which means anyone who can connect to the XP box has access to any shared resources. That's OK in a 2 or 3 computer network, but throw the Internet into the mix and... Well, if you don't...

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    Actually, what I did with the Security Policies on the WinXP machine I did long before trying to share resources between the systems. I was on a security kick, and I followed some instructions from various places, but then I did some changes of my own. They didn't seem to cause any trouble...

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    I must not have pointed out before that TCP/IP and NetBEUI are running on both machines, I just have TCP/IP not bound to any services on either one. I tried setting up a folder with full permissions for the Win98 user; didn't work... I have looked at the event logs, since I did enable...

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    I'm using the NetBEUI protocol bound to Microsoft Networking on both machines instead of TCP/IP. I wanted to make absolutely sure no MS Networking stuff could get in from or out onto the Internet, so I used an un-routable protocol. Unfortunately I can't use the IP address like you pointed out...

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    I made some changes, based on the suggestions in the previous post: Shortened the printer share name to 8 characters. Added 'Authenticated Users' and the Win98 user to the 'Access this computer from the network' policy in User Rights Assignment. Added the Win98 user to the 'Deny login...

    Win98 PC can't access WinXP Pro PC shares

    Here's the setup: I have two PCs, one Win98, the other WinXP Pro. I'm trying to set it up so that the printers attached to each machine will be available to the other via the network (Cat5 10/100Base Ethernet with a little NetGear switch between them and a Cisco DSL router off of the switch.)...

    Perplexing and infuriating Audigy installation lockup

    I just recently received a used Audigy sound card that I won on eBay, to replace the previous, exact same model, Audigy card that I thought had gotten damaged when my motherboard went flaky from a malfunctioning power supply. I had already bought a brand new motherboard of the same brand and...
