i have share my internet connection using 2 lan cards through a cross crimped cable.
sometimes the internet on my 2nd pc (containing 1 lan card) does not work.then when i try to disable my internal lan connection between 2 pc's from the main pc (containing 2 lan cards) the pc justs abruptly restarts as if the lan card was hung.after restart all is working fine.

Sounds like a potential driver/hardware issue where the card is getting unstable or making the system unstable.

Try new drivers. Alternately, try a new NIC. You can find them for barely $10.
