Thank you Brian & Phil for your help on this. 

I can now ping the ip's associated with the nics that are directly hooked up 
with each other via the crossover  cable. However, I can't get any further 
than that and I think if I've got everything set up right thatI shoulc be 
able to ping anywhere on the network (at least my home) from the M$ box. It 
won't find the IP associated with eth0 or the isp's default Gateway Ip . 
Soooooooo I've got more head scratching to and research to do I think. This 
is not a simple process and I know networking. enough to be dangerous to me. 
and mime.
