Peter:

        Yes, it looks like your Ethernet network isn't working as
well as it could be. I'd suggest removing the crossover cable, and
connect the PC's thru a low-end router like the LinkSys BEFSR41.
You can find one of those on EBay for less than $25. With one
of those "in between" your PC's, you don't even have to specify
an IP address. Just choose "Get IP Address Automatically" in the
TCP/IP setup. That should work much more reliably.

        Hope this helps. Good luck!
