Usually, there is a problem with the configuration of the PC that is not showing. Start off by swapping out the two network cards, and cables just to prove that both work. Then remove all aspects of your network definition, and allow windows to find everything again.--Goto: Start:Control Panel:Network This is just a start point. From there, double check all aspects of your network config. Are you using 98 or 2000? Tracey
