Hello, well if am right, the cable you are using may be a straight Ethernet cable, it is the mostly used, for such connection you need a cross cable, to know if the cable is straight or cross just look at the 2 RJ45 connectors, if the wiring colors are in the same order they are straight. also you need to set you connection to manual and input the ip manually, use ip like 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 to differenciate the 2 pc

I suggest you read this topic

http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-10077-how-to-connect-2-sy­stems-using-lan

but i think the most troubling will be the cross cable, they aren't really sold everywhere
