Have a network between Win98se and Vista machines. Can access the Win 98
from vista but no the Vista from Win98se. When clicking on the vista network icon in the Win98se I get a request for a password! Is this a password in Win98se or in Vista? How can I recover the password? Thanks Gary |

Thanks Gary if your trying to access vista shared on win98 and its prompting for a password it will be asking asking for the vista password. usualy youll need to enter the machine name followed buy the account name and password which has access to the share ie username: [machine name]\[your account] password: password just found this which may be of interest '_http://www.vistax64.com/vista-networking-sharing/93283-problems-sharing-files-between-vista-windows-98-a.html_' (http://www.vistax64.com/vista-networ...dows-98-a.html) -- finglonger |
