Try going to the XP CD look for the Valuadd folder open it then open Msft then Net,
you will find Netbeui files in there and the instructions on how to install it on
the XP machine this gives you compatibiliy with Win9X and Win2K all of which have
Netbeui installed by default
It worked for me
Cheers
