This sounds like a driver problem to me under Windows 98, are you using
windows 98 second edition on both machines? I would suggest uninstalling the
drivers under windows 98, and then powering down your machines, then
restart, and power down once again. Then try to reinstall the drivers and be
sure that the drivers you are installing are for windows 98. You might want
to look at the machine with the USB wireless adapter first, my guess is that
it may be a combination of Windows 98 and USB hardware that is causing the
problems. Some old windows 98 software did a poor job at supporting USB
adapters.
