| | Win98se network password 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 |

| | Re: Win98se network password Have found in other groups that Win98se can not connect to Vista as Microsoft did not allow for this! Thanks any way.
