Need Help Troubleshooting a network problem

Ok I have a wireless network setup in the house. Everything has worked spectacularly untill just now. This problem is with two specific computers: One has a WiFi card and USB LAN card and the other just a LAN card. So I'm trying to network them together to both A. swap files/stream files and B. get it so the second computer has internet access.


Where I'm at---

I have a crossover cable between the two PCs and apparently they see each other because I can access each other's sharedfolders just fine. The problem I'm having is when I go into Network Connections and click "Setup a home or small office network" to share the wireless connection I get an error that says "cannot complete the network setup wizard. an error occurred during configuration of the network on this computer. you can configure your network manually..."

I just did this same process on my Laptop (i was connecting to the internet on this 2nd desktop (the one w/o a wifi card) through the laptop's wifi card) and it worked flawlessly. I bring the desktop over to it's new home and I have this problem.

So I have part A. down. I can access the network just fine, I just can't get internet access! Please help!
