Hi Jeff, I had the same problem when I got my laptop. I'm going from memory but I'll give it a try. XP wants to do all connections with TCP/IP. I did not feel safe 'cause I use that for internet and don't want print & file sharing turn on yet I want to share files over my local so I have always had IPX/SPX & NetBEUI protocols for sharing. Hope your following. Anyway Micros**t no longer supports either as of XP. But..... after an exhausted search of Microsoft I found that ( and this where my memory draws a blank ) somewhere on your XP CD is the protocol & directions how to install it on the XP machine. I did that and it works well. Still a little touchy but then again what's not with MS. Hope this helps. If you have trouble finding it let me know & I'll try to retrace my steps. P.S. DO NOT have print & file sharing turned on for TCP/IP. Risky business.
