Sure do - all you need to do is assign each computer am IP address. Go to
control panel and open ip network settings, select TCP/IP for your network
card (not TCP/IP dial up) and give each computer an IP address. I use
192.168.0.1   and 192.168.0.2  Start the game in server mode on 192.168.0.1
then fire up the other machine and type in that address in the address
book - do a refresh and you should see it
Good luck and enjoy !!
