Hi everyone,

I have two computers connected to a hub. One computer has Windows 95 on it (let's call that one computer A). The other has the left overs of a previous Windows 95 installation and should still be accessible as a Windows drive (let's call that one B). When I say left overs I mean that although I originally had a windows 95 installation on it I eventually decided to just use it to store my data files on.

Anyway how can I connect to, view, and write to the drive in computer B from my computer A?? The B computer is no longer bootable as a Windows system though the drive is still partitioned as a FAT32 system. When I had the drive in computer A on computer B I could see the drive just fine. But now that I have moved the bootable drive to computer A I can no longer access the other (non-bootable) drive on computer B.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Carlos
