You have a name or protocal conflict.
Try setting one computer as 192.168.0.0 and the other as 192.168.0.1 in the TCP/IP properties (static ip's).
Also if your connecting via ethernet, you either need a crossover cable or two straight cables and a small 5 port hub.
Been there, done that. still won't work! Please help anybody, getting frustrated here.
Any IP ENDING in 0 is not valid. It should be 192.168.0.1-254 ;)Quote:

Make sure both PC names are unique from each other.
