    Duplicate Names

    That wouldn't matter because users profiles are different than a machine name running on the network. When it says duplicate name on network it is talking about the actual computer name given to the box when it had the OS installed. Jeremy

    Incorrect CPU speed

    Get rid of that Linksys....It won't solve your problem but it will save you headaches in the future. Our Win2k machines at work do not do well at all with the Linksys cards.

    I can't set up a network on win2k Pro

    Easiest way I found is get a router with DHCP and let it do everything.....Just make sure they are in the same workgroup. I have a 2000 and a 98 machine at home on a router with dhcp and the only thing I had to do was make sure I enabled sharing on my drives.
