A while back, I purchased a new computer and I stored the old one away and now I would like to get it up and running. What do I need to do or get, to get the old computer running so that both computers are running at the same time?

You'll need to get a wireless rerouter. If you go to Staples, they will tell you exactly what you need to do to get set up. That is what we did.

I have 3 active computers in 3 separate locations in the house. I don't understand your problem.
When I used dial-up, I could go online with any one of them. Now that I have cable, they are networked via linksys and routers. I can only be on one at a time, so no problem.
Will they both be in use at the same time? If so, if you have dial-up, I imagine only one could go online. If you have cable, and more than one address, both may be able to go online. I haven't tried this.
