Anyone know how to connect a Windows XP computer to an OLD 1992 IBM PS/2 with WfW 3.11 using a Direct Paralell Cable? Or how to get Intersvr running in Windows XP? I tried running Intersvr and Interlnk on Windows XP, but I guess Windows XP cant redirect drives! It only works in MS-DOS Mode when theres no hard drive booted! Please help!!

Adding 'please help' at the end of a post is repetitive and unnecessary
You can't run DCC on Win31 - might try something like Total Commander
Saying that XP is the most stable MS OS is like saying that asparagus is the most articulate vegetable

You might try intersvr/interlnk in config.nt / autoexec.nt

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

Thanks, I downloaded the Total Commander program, and it looks ok. I will install the DOS version the next time I get on the old computer.

The DOS is a client proggie that runs at the other end. You don't particularly need to download the win31 version unless you plan to run it in that OS.
