   I tried installing XP on a new-to-me (Pentium 4-ish) machine, but despite   
   repeated attempts, using numerous sources (including my original no-service-   
   pack disk), I've yet to get it installed properly.   
      
   The main problem is, networking doesn't get installed. At all. Or at least,   
   not so I can tell.   
      
   (Also, local disk management fails to work, but I'm hoping that's a secondary   
   issue.)   
      
   I'm looking for some ideas as to where I should start troubleshooting. Or   
   perhaps a decent google search; my prodding has failed.
