Some basic stuff (that you might have already but just in case).
Right click the Network Neighborhood icon and click properties. On the Configuration tab make sure Client for Microsoft Networks is there, and your network card of course, and TCP/IP, and File and printer sharing if ya wanna do that (not needed if you is only looking for internet access and games stuff iirc)
On the Identification tab make sure the Workgroup is exactly the same as the other PC.

If still need help give us more clues and we'll try. I know this can be done cos mine works (XP & 98) although I aint ever used ICS cos I got a router/switch thingy
