If you're using WinXP Professional, here is the solution:... Howdy Gang, Thanks to all who've contributed to the Win98<->WinXP networking thread. I appreciate all the info. Now, here's what I found with my particular setup: Installed WinXP Pro 5 days ago onto a Promise Technology driven pair of 40GB WD hard drives. My PC is a Micron PIII, 667Mhz. I have (2) other PCs on my network working through (1) Linksys and (1) Addtron switches. Both of the other PCs are Win98SE. I booted to XP and was unable to perform Windows Updates using IE6 via my DSL connection. In fact, I couldn't get ANY downloading to work. I found there was a Windows IRQ sharing conflict between my OEM US Robotics 56k modem (vintage 1999) and the Promise TX2000 RAID card. Loading new drivers for both devices didn't clear the problem. Moving the modem to a different slot helped. So, I left the modem in. My next discovery was sloooooooow networking between PCs (that's how I ended up here via Google). I did the recommended. "check this, check that", and even installed TweakDUN. Same slooooooooooow networking. On a hunch, I pulled the modem. My network is back to normal and hauls a$$. I'm not sure it will help anyone else, but I wanted to offer my experience back to the forum.
