Check that your cat5 cable is the right one to connect 2 pcs directly. Normally,cat5 cables are crossed-cables, meaning that they wont work connecting them directly to the pcs.
Create a shared folder on both computers. In that folder, both computers can see what's there.
Vista sometimes don't work when it comes for doing small networks. Try turnnig off the firewall from the advanced settings in the Firewall Properties.
cheers!!!!
