the only suggestion I can give is to run the wizard again and post back where it fails. Other tidbits to serve up would be:
1) type of internet connection
2) network layout
3) software firewalls being used
for starters.
i have two winxp machines and i have the network working between the two computers, but i am having trouble setting up the internet connection sharing so far xp has not been able to set it up. thanks for your help
