Need some pro advice, im going crazy, my *$&#!* computers wont network anymore - a week or so ago i caught a trogan which slowed down my PC's to a standstill after many attempts in trying to get rid of it and failed i reformatted both PC's & install OS's etc.,
Now all i want to do is network them like before which was so simple. Winxp pro as the server and win2k the client. Winxp with internet sharing enabled. Yet nothing works.:damn::damn: Im just running a dial up with crossover cables and i set the network IP like this:
Winxp IP 192.168.0 1/255.255.255.0
Win2k IP 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 Gateway 192.168.0.1
Now that should work right? Well it doesn't i cannot see either PC on the PC's, i only see the pc im on. I have File and printer sharing enabled on both PC's, so it should show up.
All cards are installed, modem is on, cables are connected and firewall is turned off. I have gone over it dozen of times checking and rechecking that everything is enabled/installed. I cannot internet shared until the network is working. And what is even worse i cannot play a lan game of SH3 :nope::damn::roll:
Any other IP config i could try out, or any other way of going about it? ive always used this method mention and never had trouble before. Also i might add that the trogan/virus attacked my network maybe its stuff it up internally?:hmm: Because after a reformatt it should work.
