In this case two types.\n\n1.If you have HUb or Switch, use Stright cables,i.e CAT5or Cat 6 Ethernet cables, enable Netbiew protocal,go to mynetwork place,my nearest computer,then u can see the second computer.\n2.use crossover Ethernet Cable, connected pc to pc.\nenable Netbiew protocal.

It's easy mate... open your WiFi settings... go to advanced ...there you would find a  option of ad-hoc networks(computer to computer) .. you need it to enable on both the PC's ...after doing it..you would fins the PCin the network list.......just connect and enjoy...

Here is a step by step I wrote for someone wanting to make a network between 2 desktops and a laptop...\n\nThe following requires a ROUTER... \n\nFollow these steps...\n\n#1 Make sure all computers are set up properly via network. To do this you must do the following...\n\nOPEN MY COMPUTER> BROWSE TO DESKTOP> find "MY NETWORK PLACES" inside this box, find the item that says NETWORK SETUP WIZARD... open it...\nClick Next on the first window.\nClick next on the second,\nWhen you see the window that has 3 options, choose "OTHER" and when it goes to the next window choose the TOP OPTION, which should say "THIS COMPUTER CONNECTS DIRECTY TO THE INTERNET THROUGH A NETWORK OR HUB, OTHER COMPUTERS ALSO CONNECT VIA HUB"\nClick next, and name the pcs whatever you want so you can identify them.\nClick next, then specify the WORKGROUP NAME, which must be the same on all computers, MSHOME is the defualt which is fine. Then click next\nThen click "TURN ON FILE AND PRINT SHARING"\nThen click next\nClick next again.\nThen let it finish, then click JUST FINISH THE WIZARD I DONT NEED TO RUN THE WIZARD ON OTHER COMPUTERS.\nThen click FINISH.\n\n\nYou must do the above steps on all 3 computers to ensure they all are using the same type of settings.\n\nAlso after the step is done and you restart each machine, go to START>CONTROL PANEL< and make sure WINDOWS FIREWALL is turned off on each machine. When you turn on file and print sharing, by default the windows firewall will turn on...\n\nYou do not need windows firewall, it sucks, and you have a router which is a firewall in itself.\n\nStep #2\nMake sure the printer you want to share is either plugged into the router, or into one of your computers. Most likely its already installed on one of your computers...\n\nOn the computer you have the printer hooked up to, click START>CONTROL PANEL, find PRINTERS AND FAXES and when this window opens, find the printer you are using, right click the printer and choose SHARING make sure SHARE THIS PRINTER button is chosen. Choose a name for the printer and click OK... Just click OK to any other things it asks you.\n\nRestart all 3 computers to refresh the network... Usually the other computers will auto detect the Network shared Printer, but if they do not, then go to step #3.\n\nStep #3 Go to the 2 computers that the printer is not hooked up to, click START> CONTROL PANEL> PRINTERS AND FAXES and if you do not see the printer listed, click ADD PRINTER.\nWhen the window opens, click NEXT, then click the dot next to "A NETWORK PRINTER OR A PRINTER ATTACHED TO ANOTHER COMPUTER".\nThen click next.\nThen click BROWSE FOR PRINTER.\nThen it may scan for a bit, may even freeze up for a moment, then you should see the name of the other 2 computers you are not using, or the name of the computer that has the printer hooked up to it...\n\nCollapse the computer that has the printer connected to it, till you see the SHARED printer and its NAME. Double click it.\n\nIt may have a window message that says YOU ARE ABOUT TO CONNECT TO A PRINTER...ETC... Just click OK OR YES, then in the next window, click SET THIS PRINTER AS DEFAULT PRINTER>... then click NEXT and then click FINISH...\n\nNOW YOU ARE ready to use a single printer on any of the 3 computers...\n\n\n#4 To share files in general: Refer back to step #2... Except that this time you need to use the computers SHARED FOLDER, or create a folder in MY DOCUMENTS, or simply right click MY DOCUMENTS and click PROPERTIES then choose SHARING and then SHARE THIS FOLDER ON THE NETWORK, ALLOW USERS to change my files, is optional to you.\n\nThen click ok...\n\nNow any file in MY DOCUMENTS can be shared among computers...\n\nNote: If you allow users to change your files, they can delete crap from another computer, rename it, or possible move it. If you do not select the allowing users to change files option, the only thing they can do, is grab the file off the ma

As it has been mentioned already, you have 2 choices.\n1) Get a crossover cable and plug the 2 laptops together.\n2) Get 2 straight through cables and a hub, router or a switch and pug them in.\nThe advantage of the second option (if you get a router) is that you can plug in a cable modem or DSL modem and share the Internet with both laptops at the same time.\nNo matter which option you pick, you then need to give the computers IP addresses so they can talk. If you go with a router, most routers have a DHCP server that takes care of that. Just let the laptops grab IP addresses from the router. If you go with the crossover cable option, give one an IP address like 192.168.0.10 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and the other one 192.168.0.11 with the same subnet.\nThen share the files and folders that you want to access from the other PC and you are on your way.

If both have NIC Card just make a crossover cable ....well to do this you need and special tool, just  buy it in bestbuy or any computer store, it's bery cheap.\n\nAfter you connect them configure the NIC card on each PC as follow:\n\nConfig NIC Manually and type:\n\nOn PC1 \nIP:10.10.10.1\nmask:255.255.255.0\n\nOn PC2 \nIP:10.10.10.2\nmask:255.255.255.0\n\nAnd you ar ready to play......    :>\n\nIf you access Internet throug your NIC, you willnot be able to browse at the same time.

make a new connection and in control panel open network connections and you will find the new connection you made , right click on it and properties and you will find a tab called sharing connection , just click on it and enable connection sharing and be sure that both computers are in the same work group name , and to know that just in control panel open icon called system and click on tab called network and you will find network ID and another button called change click on change and make both computers have the same work group name , then go to your control panel again and open printer and right click on your printer and properties and make it share for every one in your net work and from the other computer you will find the printer shared in network places , just right click on it and install and it will be added to your printers

If you only want to link the computers to each other, install NIC's in each machine, and connect them using a crossover ethernet cable.\n\nIf you want to network the computers and share an internet connection, the method will be determined by whether you have dial-up or a high speed (DSL or cable) connection.  You don't give enough information to point you in the right direction.

yes, try to connect the 2 PC together some how (seriel cable is the best way- both end should be male (have the little pins- needles if you want)), and configure you game's network so the computers can see each other, it should be very easy.\nhave fun.

Easier than ALL the solutions proposed so far, buy yourself a *crossover ethernet* cable.  You can then connect the two computers via their ethernet ports.  Most computers these days have ethernet ports built in.\n\nThe crossover ethernet cable will allow you to have the two computers connected together into a 'hubless' network and they can share files, printers, ethernet connections, etc.  You just need to go into the Network Wizard and tell it you want to enable File and Print Sharing.  After that you can simply drag files into the shared folder on one computer and they will be visible to the other for copying.\n\nI'd give you all the nitty-gritty details, but instead of repeating things, I'm attaching a link to a very good article by Microsoft on setting up a home network.  The relevant section is under "Ethernet network - For two computers".\n\nAnd if you ever decide to upgrade to more computers, you can simply disconnect the two, add a router and a few more cables...\n\nNote: an Ethernet *crossover* cable is *not* the same thing as an Ethernet *patch* cable.  Be sure to tell the salesperson at your local electronics store that you want a *crossover* cable for connecting two PCs directly.\n\nI added another link to Radio Shack, in case you weren't sure what you should ask for.  You shouldn't pay any more than US$10 for a cable, perhaps even less.  Ask for Ethernet Cat5 or Cat5e, but be sure it is the *crossover* type, not the regular type.\n\nI see in your additional comments that you already have a network set up with a router and a wireless card.  If so, then you should already be set to go.  Just go to 'My Network Neighborhood' and look for the Shared Documents folder.  Put the file there, then copy to the other computer.

I would advise using a router. However, it is possible to network using USB. \nThis is a very frequently asked question.\n\nYou will need a Male to Male USB cable:\nhttp://www.mobileplanet.com/product.asp?code=EXP_USBAA\n\nYou will also need to follow the instructions on the microsoft website listed below, after you have established a USB network connection between the 2 computers.\nIt is better, though, to connect the 2 computers using a Crossover CAT5 cable, or just buy a router for $50.

The most conventional way now would be to buy a router, all necessary connecting cables or wireless adapter cards if needed to connect two or more computers together.  However, this is a very broad question and is not specific enough to go into detail.    Information is needed on the reason you want to network, what types & how many computers, what operating system they use, etc.

First, get an ethernet hub or switch. (If you're going to connect more than two computers then a switch is a better choice)\nMake sure you have an eternet port on each. (If they are different speeds, they'll need to either be 10/100 capable, or you'll need a 10/100 hub or switch. (Of course if you have gigabit, you'll need to account for that as well)\n\nOnce you connect the computers, setup networking on Windows. You'll need to do a little configuration, but the wizard makes it easy. You might have to make one a DHCP server, unless you have a router on the network. If you've got Cable or DSL, the router that you are using for that has DHCP which will setup the IP address of each computer.

1. Connect both laptop and computer at your router using 2 network cable.\n2. Power on the router.\n3. Go to My computer icon on desktop.\n4. Right click and select properties.\n5. Look for your workgroup and make sure that is same with the other computer, if there are not the same please proceed to the next steps.\n6. Click to change your workgroup. \n7. Complete the Workgroup box same as the workgroup of computer or laptop. \n8. Click OK, reboot and enjoy \n:d

If you have ethernet jacks on each computer then you can get a crossover cable which will allow you to create a 2 computer LAN.  You can then setup file sharing on the old computer and just drag and drop your files onto the new computer :)
