tried adding w98 to my network. through windows, i
enabled file/printer sharing. Had to restart computer.
once computer restarted, it's asking for a Microsoft
Networking user name, password, domain. I've never had
to logon to W98 before, so i have no idea what
information it is asking for. I am unable to start in
Safe Mode to undue what I have done. PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks in advance

1. Go to Control Panel | Network.

2. Set the primary network logon to Windows Logon.

3. Double click "Client for Microsoft Networks" in the list of network
components, and empty all of the "Windows NT domain" boxes in that
screen.

4. Click OK to exit, reboot, and log on with a user name and no
password.

I can't get to control panel because i'm unable to log on
to Win98 -- why? because i don't have/know user name,
password, domain it's asking for. also, on dual boot,
how do i get to safemode for the secondary boot drive.
YIKES!!!
THANKS AGAIN IN ADVANCE!
