Network question

I have two computers ( one with Win XP, the other Win 98SE) net'd together
and bot hare currently communicating via IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol with
NETBIOS enabled. I have read that Net BEUI works better and faster (file
transfers and access take forever). I have tried to get rid off the IPX/SPX
and replace it with Net BEUI, but then the two computers can't find each
other. Any ideas?

Re: Network question

Netbeui is fasted with less overhead. You must remove IPX first.
