make sure 98SE has TCP/IP installed (I'm not certain that it does that by default, but I'm just making sure) and that the IP addresses are set properly. then, share the appropriate folders and browse to the computer using your favourite method.

Don't forget to install "Client for Microsoft Networks" as well.

Only if you plan on using it.
Just like you have to add NetBEUI if you plan on using NetBEUI.

Step by step instructions:
1. Remove Windows 98 on machine A
2. (Optional) Remove Windows XP on machine B
3. Install Windows 2000 on machine A
4. (Optional) Install Windows 2000 on machine B
5. Share your files normally

Set both computers to share files, then the important thing is to make sure they are both using the same workgroup name. I believe 2000+ is MSHOME while ME and under are something else. I'd recommended leaving your XP as MSHOME (check to make sure it's not something else of course) and changing the 98SE to the same. Also note that you may have to type it exactly the same way on both computers.
