Tried setting up a second PC tonight and it didn't work out.1 I am using a 3com to connect to my cable modem, I added a second NIC(realtek) and added a NIC(realtek)to the second PC. The 2 realtek NIC's are connected to each other with a network cable. I ran the ICS wizrd on the main PC, then on the second(followed instructions, rebooted and all). I ran the internet connection wizard on the second PC choosing LAN, but the second PC isn't connecting still. Any idea's?

Did you run a cross-over cable between the PCs or are they connected to a hub? If its just a cable then you will need a cross-over cable, the hub does the cross-overing inside.

Yeah, go to start|run| and type "ping 192.168.0.1" If you used the MS ICS, then the gateway should be set to the above address. If you get a reply, then the connection is there, you just need to iron a few things out.

EDIT:
Oh, yeah, what OS's are you useing..
