Recently we wiped out our Win98se installation on one of out network
computers. Re-installed as per previous installations but this time NO
network neighborhood. Everything is working and configured properly, cards,
workgroup, etc - have done this many times of different computers and never
had this problem. Now there's nothing - any suggestions?

Have you gone into control panel and looked at the properties for the
TCP/IP? Also, is it set for logging in using Microsoft Network, or windows
logon?

Someone might have hidden Network Neighborhood using Tweak UI. Go to
Control Panel. If Tweak UI is present, double click it. On the
Desktop tab, put a check mark in the Network Neighborhood box, click
Apply and OK.

If that doesn't work, go to Control Panel | Network. Remove Client
for Microsoft Networks if it's present. Then add Client for Microsoft
Networks. That should make Network Neighborhood re-appear.

If that doesn't work, there could be a system policy hiding Network
Neighborhood. Run the registry editor, open this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer

and delete the value named "NoNetHood".
