I need to connect an old 98SE computer to my WinXP computer via a parallel cable so that I can give the 98SE internet access to windows update. The 98SE computer refuses my network card I tried to install so parallel is my last option. Any info on how to set up both machines for this to work? I ahve the parallel cable, and have already connected the two computers. I just need to know how to set it up.

Thanks :)

look under HELP in win98 or winxp

the steps for "Direct Cable Connection" using parallel[ laplink]] cable is listed in there.
