Connecting two computers with a cat5

Alright, I'm trying to hook two of my computers together using a cat5 cable - They're plugged together and I've set the IP address to 162.10.10.1 and 162.10.10.2.

Now that they're hooked together and the IP addresses are set I'm getting the problem of th ecomputers not seeing each other. I've rebooted both systems, but frankly I've got no idea what to do. I ran the "set up a home or small office network" wizard on both systems and it didn't set up anything.

I've never done this kind of thing so I've got no earthly idea what I should be doing at the moment.

Any help is very appreciated. Thanks.
