   Thank you for the prompt reply.   
      
   No much luck with A). This is what I tried. I have Windows XP Pro.   
      
   1. Open Networks Connections Pannel.   
   2. Right-click on Local Area Connection and choose properties.   
   3. Install Microsoft IPX/SPX protocol.   
   4. Then when to advanced settings on Network Connections menu.   
   5. On the Adapters and Bindings tab selected Local Area Connection,  then   
   File and Print Sharing and unchecked TCP/IP (only NWLink IPX/SPX selected).   
   6. Rebooted   
      
   Still cannot map to shares when Contivity is on. Am I missing something.   
   Want to confirm before mocking up my laptop really good :-(
