you have to connect the pc with the cross cable..

next you have to do the network wizard on the control panel on th 2 pc...

yes.. you have to set the game after...

ok thanks

so how I deal with network wizard?

just configure your NIC by hand.

 

TCP/IP properties

IP adress : 192.168.0.x

netmask: 255.255.255.0

 

just replace x by 1 for the first PC and by 2 for the second one.

 

When you are done, plug the cross-cable and try to ping each PC.

In a MS-DOS command prompt,

on PC 1, type

ping 192.168.0.2

on PC 2, type

ping 192.168.0.1

 

you should have icmp echo-reply on both sides.

If your game manages LAN network on TCP/IP, you'll be able to play (if no firewall blocks the game packets)
