    Set the IP addresses to 192.168.1.1 on 1 computer and 192.168.1.2 on the other one. 255.255.255.0 for the mask.

    Set the workgroup of both computers to the same name.

    Share the drive or the folders you want to be shared.

    You will have no connectivity, since you have no modem or router.

    You would have to be WAY more specific than giving just the name of your network... Please do some research before actually attempting to create one..

    Yep, I know exactly what's wrong with it. The solution is extremely simple. Its a PICNIC problem.
