Need help with simple networking.

[StuntMonkeh]

I am trying to network my two PC's using a network crossover lead. I am running WinXP Pro on both machines. On one pc is a USB modem connected to the internet. All I would like to do is be able to move files from one to another and connect to the internet from the other PC which doesn't have the modem. I'm sure its pretty straightforward.... please help me

The internet is working but I can't get the file sharing working or remote desktop. Those guides are okay but basically I have just run the wizards so I have no idea what anything is set up to....
