Check its IP address and make sure that a) it has a an IP consistent with
your network's scheme (192.168.0.x, 192.168.1.x, etc.) and b) that the IP

On Windows 95/98/ME systems, go to Start >> Run >> winipcfg

If you can't get a unique IP address assigned dynamically, you may have to
set the address to be static.
