Find the folder you want to share, right click, Sharing and enable it.

Then Start - Run and type cmd

Then ipconfig

Note the number starting 192.168.x.x

Then on the other computer Start Run and type \\192.168.x.x replacing the x with whatever your ipconfig told you.

Crossover if you were just linking the two computers together. With a router would be patch/straight through.
