Have you disabled the firewall on the XP machine? Have you set up IP addresses for each machine? Can you ping either of them?

And ya shouldn't connect to the internet without a patched machine!

You need ZoneAlarm Pro, stops any of that shittttt.

As for the networking, all versions of windows hate each other. Even the same ones. Full stop.

In ya network and dialup connections.. goto the Network device.. there'll be a properties tab.. its on that.

To set a IP address.. click onto Internet Procotol (TCP/IP) click properties..

click on Use the following IP address.. set ya IP address to something like 192.168.80.1 subnet mask to 255.255.255.254

then ya other machine.. set to IP 192.168.80.2 (same subnet mask) use a cross-over patch cable.. or if ya got a switch connect both to that... and try to ping the other machine

To ping, go Run, then type in "ping ***.***.**.*" where the ***s are their IP address

Winja - Is this a way to get folks to come down your way to help you sort out your comp (in which the computer story is really a ruse).... and then throw paintbrushes at them to PAINT THAT DAMN ROOF

**DemonWolf** · 12th September 2005, 20:47

hehe... good on ya OMGWTFBBQ... though I normally do it in a command window (goto Run, type cmd, then type ping ***.etc) to find out if ya set the IP and subnet mask right both each machine, within the command window type ipconfig /all this displays the Ip configuration info =)

You need copy of Windows XP Pro corp with sp2, save you alot of fucking around.

Should be on 'Shareaza', or kazzalite.

there are several known problems with xp and 2000, try looking on windows update for the patches for these and that should also help. Failing that you could just connect the HD directly and do a file transfer as the computer thinks it is only talking to itself.

**NordieBoy** · 12th September 2005, 21:15

Kidnap someone who knows what they're doing, should only take a few minutes.

And once you've got them they should only take a few minutes to fix it.

The versions of windows you've got are fine, you just need an IP address set up at each end and you should be going at it with your right hand in no time.

Just wait for the person you kidnapped to leave first...

Or get them painting the roof and remove the ladder...

HTH
