I don't think you need to run the new connection wizard. This is for connecting computers with parallel, serial cables etc. Just connect the two computers together with the crossover cable, make sure they've both got good IP addresses and it should work fine.

On the computer where you're getting that error message, can you please show me it's ipconfig? Click Start, Run and type cmd. In the Command Prompt type "ipconfig /all > C:\ipconfig.txt" (without the quotes). Then copy the contents from that file into your next post.
