    Built in LAN and crappy NIC in Opticrap

    Laptop has HD with Win XP corrupted and buggered install The Client.
    Opti-gameboy with bigger screen has Win 98SE (XP laughed at it) on it The server ( the cd rom tbh is what i want and need).

    Lappie can boot over network in a variety of flavours DHCP ,TCP IP (why i dunno) PXE BOOTP Netware RPL and somfin else.

    Have tried a few things none even remotly successful, OPti thingy has workgroup on it already.
