    Old Laptop upgrade

    Well, gbaughma, it's not assigning an IP address TO a serial port. The rest of my post was actually related to crossover connection, thanks for pointing out the missing part in my post. However, I'm inclined to assume that the laptop doesn't have a RJ-45 port. In this case, ArizonaGeek's...

    Old Laptop upgrade

    Connect your computers via a serial cable (female RS232 jacks on both ends). Then assign static IP addresses for both computers. For Win95, use winipcfg (just click "Run" from Start Menu, type WINIPCFG and press Enter). For new systems, use Network Connections window. Share the folder that is...

    Yes, all you need is an ethernet cable. Then just follow the manual.

    Old Laptop upgrade

    As has been said, you can use a serial cable or a PCMCIA network adapter. There are USB LAN devices on the market as well, which come with Win95 drivers, in case your laptop has USB ports.

    PC Reboots everytime

    Maybe it's a reparable boot sector defect, or something like that. Try a disk diagnosis. If you don't have any tools at ready, remove the hard disk, plug it in another computer as a secondary drive and use CHKDSK on it. You can also try a system restore, by using a tool e.g. ERD Commander.

    revert to windows XP Pro

    Laptop sees network, can't connect to internet

    Check if your laptop is configured to connect the right DNS server (unless it's already automatically configured). You may also want to check your router to see if there's any restriction put on your router's access point.

    Oh, never mind. I see you've tried it already.

    Ethernet card - connectivity

    I had the same problem before, and it turned out that the PCI slot was faulty. I tried the card on another slot and it worked. If you haven't tried already, maybe you'd like to give it a shot.

    Periodical holo-cutouts in my WLAN

    I've set up a small wireless network in a small area. A Datron wireless ADSL router to send Internet connection to four computers, one of which being a laptop. Desktops use D-Link PCI wireless adapters, while the laptop has a D-Link USB. The problem is: In this setting, all computers lose their...
