you would either need a switch/hub(and 2 cat 5 cables assuming 10/100 network cards)or crossover cable to connect the two directly. If you want to just view your files you may need to enable file sharing and adjust permissions on one or both your computers. If you wanted to remote connect you would need a program like pc anywhere---I believe windows xp professional has something built into the kernel called remote connection. Not exactly sure what you are looking to do.

basically, you need to set up wiring through your entire house to connect them, using cat-5 cabling and RJ-45 connectors (you can get them already attached at any best buy). Once you do that, just ask a tech support guy to help you through enabling file sharing and hard drive sharing. That should work.
