I am having problems connecting two computers together. I
have ethernet connections on both, I have ran the wizard on
both and my hosy computer runs XP while my other runs ME. I
trouble shot the device and the nic card is supposed to be
working properly yet it says I have a cable unplugged on
the Icon for my local network. I just bought the connecting
cable and it is snug on both computers. HELP this is so
frustrating. I have tryed everything the trouble shooters
suggest but to no avail. Any feed back would be great.

Just out of curiousity, do you have a regular network
cable going from the one computer to the other one? or
do you have 2 cables with a hub in between? or do you
have a crossover cable going from one computer to the
other?
