Network Home Computer To Laptop

hi

i tried to network my laptop and my home computer together, and i keep getting the error message saying that you dont have permission to access the network recourse or something like that.

i am using just a crossover cable
my home computer is called RICHARD (XP Home Edition)

i cant ping from either of the machines
Thank You Both Anyway
If you can't ping then it's likely either one of the cards is not working properly or isn't installed/configured properly, you haven't configured suitable IP addresses for the machines or the cable is faulty.
