How would I connect two or more computers so that I can access Computer 1 from Computer 2 and run its programs, and vice versa? I have several computers with Windows XP Pro and I have a router.

Thanks.

Well, if it's more than 2 computers, you hook them all up to the router and create a home network with the network wizard.
If it's just 2 computers, you can get a crossover cable and connect them to each other directly.

TO the OP: Don't use a standard cable!! You could blow things up. It will say crossover on the label and cost the same price
