it told me to delete the network bridge so do i just delete the icon that says: Local Area Connection? im not sure cuz it might be our internet (we sare an internet betwiin computers with this modem (its a belkin) the good computer has the modem (it has antennas) while the older computer has the wireless card installed (with an antenna comming out of the back sticking out if the computer)

shamim316 told me: the network bridge would be the router connecting the 2 computers. (i DO know what a router is, its some kinda cord) but i didnt know that you have to have this router to connect computers. (well i did for the old computer but on the new one it had told me to make a floppy disk and i did. and i did the wizard on both computers and that was all it told me and normally it tells me when im doing something wrong

Answer 1

Do you have a modem only , or is the Belkin a router?

If the older computer won't *start*, that has nothing to do with your network or Internet Connection Sharing, or anything. Get the older computer to the point where it will start, then enable ICS on the XP computer and create a bridge on the older computer, since it has a wireless adapter. Without seeing your setup in person, I couldn't get any more specific than that, I'm afraid.

Answer 2

the network bridge would be the router connecting the 2 computers. by the way your photo is in a private album and cannot be seen.
