I'm ignoring everyone else's posts and starting from scratch to make this as simple as possible. If someone else already answered this awesome.
Here is what I would do.
On the PC you want to grab the files from. Go to Start then Run, type in cmd. Once the Command Prompt is up type in ipconfig /all. Find the IP Address, and write this down.
On that same PC. Hit the Windows Key and E Key at the same time (or open My Computer). Find the folder you want to share out, right click on that folder. Go to Properties. Go to the Sharing tab and select Share this folder. Select Permissions; if this is a temporary solution go ahead and share the folder to everyone with full access (warning: this is not secure, just the easiest way to do this; I HIGHLY recommend going back and checking Do not share this folder once you are done).
Once this folder is shared, go to the other PC, go to Start then Run and type in \\"ip address of other PC" for example (\\192.168.10.3). This should pop up a new window and you should see the folder you just shared out. From here you can copy and paste that folder onto the new PC. If this does not work, the laptop has a firewall preventing any access like this.
