14. A Logon window will appear, requiring you to enter a User name and
Password. Make up a user name and password (if you haven’t already)
and click OK. Do not click the Cancel button or Escape key. Clicking
either of these buttons will prevent you from logging into the network. If
the logon does not appear or if it does not allow you to log on, refer to
problem 3 in the Troubleshooting section on page 44.
15. Once you are at the Windows 98 desktop, double-click on the Network
Neighborhood icon. You should see one icon for the entire network and
the names of the other PCs on the network.
• If you can see your computer along with all the other computers on
the network in Network Neighborhood, then the Windows 98 net-
work configuration is complete. Continue with Sharing Your Files
and Printers on page 49 if you want your PC’s data or printer to be
available to others on the network.You may stop here, however, if
you wish to configure File and Printer Sharing at a later time.
• If you don't see anything at all in Network Neighborhood, press the F5
key on your keyboard a few times to refresh the screen. If that doesn’t
work, go to Troubleshooting problem 8 on page 45.
• If you only see your own computer in Network Neighborhood, skip to
problem 6 of the Troubleshooting section on page 45.
• If you see all computers on the network except yours press the F5 key a
few times. If, after a minute or so, you still can’t see your own PC, see
problem 7 on page 45 of the Troubleshooting section.
• If you only see computers that are running the same operating system
as you and you don’t see any others, go to problem 10 on page 46.
11. Optional: Choose the Access Control tab. Ensure that Shared-level
access control is selected. If the setting is on User-Level access control
and you can’t change it, skip to problem 5 in the Troubleshooting section
on page 45.
12. Click the OK button. Your system may or may not ask you for your
Windows 98 CD-ROM or the location of the Windows 98 installation
files. If it does, direct Windows to the appropriate location, (e.g.,
D:\win98 if you have the Windows 98 CD-ROM, or
C:\windows\options\cabs).
13. Once Windows has copied the necessary files, the System Settings
Change window appears. Remove all disks from your PC and click Ye s to
restart your PC. If you don't see this window, simply shut down Windows
98 and restart your PC. Remember to remove any installation disks or
CD-ROMs prior to rebooting.
