Networking 98se and XP.

Here's one that has more than likely been asked a million times, so I apolagize now if it has. Is it normal for my XP machine (1.4g) to be slower at accessing files from my 98se machine (533mhz) ? The 98se machine is quick at accessing the XP machine's files. Seems to me it should be the other way around or I have something not done right. I used XP to do the network install along with making the disk for 98se.

Thanks
 
i had the same issue with win98 , i upgraded to XP on the same machine and the network speed is like lightning now.

Im sure its something to do with 98 but have no idea what :p
 
Would it make a difference if one machine is NTFS and the other Fat 32 ?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
