This is a ''hub'' for connecting two systems.

XP contains step-by-step instructions for setting up a network in the form of two Wizards; the New Connection Wizard and the Network Setup Wizard. These are accessed from Control Panel - Network Connections. Depending on your view, they may be shown as icons or they may be listed as tasks in a panel on the left of the window.

When you run the setup Wizard, you will create a floppy that is used to set up the other computer. I have used this on XP-Win98 connections, and expect it will also work on XP-Win95 connections.
