More able to directly connect an XP running computer and a Vista x64 running one

Hello Everyone,

I am a sahelian eagle, based in here somewhere in the African Sahelian region! I have just made my first steps with Vista (Ultimate x64) on a brand new lovely HP laptop. Before that I was using an XP running yet other HP computer. Thr first days, I could directly connect the two using a crossover cable and access the Internet the old computer. But after I installed TuneUp Utilities 9 and ran some optimization processes that changes the default settings (I accepted all the recommendation by the Utilities), I can no longer connect to the two computers, and I can't see wich parameter(s) is/are responsible for that change. Can someone please help me solve this problem? Warmest thanks!

Love to help I think with Tuneup utilities you are able to do a registry restore. You will need to do this and hopefully that will solve your problem...
Good luck...

Is it possible to make a registry restore even after TuneUp itself recommended to get rid of unnecessary files which included Restore Points, and I did that?
