network connection for win2k

I can't get my network connection to work for my 2 win 2k machines. I have a direct connection between the two machines, both have the win2k operating system and the connnection worked previously before i got a new computer.

Are you using a cross over cable? What are the IP settings of the two machines?

You should honestly get an inexpensive cable/dsl router, that would be a better solution than a crossover cable and ICS... Less headaches.

well, if your router has multiple outs for more than one pc, it should work without problems, just try redefining the protocols that the pc's are using on the network and the internet sharing..anyway it shouldn't be a problem
