Hello, You would need to buy an ethernet adapter for the other computer as well and then if you are only conecting two computer you would not need a hub and could just buy the type of wire that goes from one pc to another. For each computer you would need to make sure Nwlink Netbios, NWlink IPX SPX compatible transport protocol, file and printer sharing, client for microsoft networks are all installed and enabled. Then plugging in the lead would connect and allow you to share files. To share your internet connection you would need to enable internet protocol as well.
I think this is how I did it! I have managed to network my pc and laptop together and can now print to the other computer's printer and acess the files on the other computer's hard drive. I still haven't found a way to get the other computer to share the internet conection but I think that is my isp. It should work if you right click on the internet connection and go to the advanced tab and enable sharing.
Hope this helps
