Connecting XP to Win2k! help!

Alright i got my main PC running Win2k. It works fine of course. Win2k rocks! And well I have two laptops. one with ME and theother with XP. The one with Me connectcs to my PC and uses the internet connection just fine. I'm running AnalogX Proxy. Wouldn't work without it. Now my other laptop that runs Xp won't work even with AnalogX Proxy. Now i don't want to install that Xp networking software crap that microsoft provides in order to setup a home network. Always installs unnecessary stuff and screws up you're pc. Well I set up everything but still no connection between the two PCs. Any ideas.

You need to put an account for the XP machine in the 2K machine and vice versa in order for them to connect properly.
