Regis,

            Both PCs must have the same protocol installed (I recommend
IPX/SPX for small networks). And both network cards must be binded to that
protocol. After this is done right-click the IPX/SPX protocol under the
network properties and make sure that Frame Type is set to "Ethernet 802.3"
under "Advanced". I hope this helps.

            Sincerely,

            Francis Ouellet
