If you can see your XP box from 98 it sounds as if your NIC's are working. On your 98 machine have you setup file and printer sharing ? You can find it via control panel / network settings.
Add protocal m/s file and printer sharing. Then go to My Computer and right click your drives. you should see an item for sharing
you can select the share properties for each drive / folder as you require. From memory I had something simmillar when I started.
Depending what name you log onto your 98 mc with you may or may-not have access to XP , there are settings you can change but just at the moment I cant recall where.
