Assign Class C address & should be working good.
Thanks guys. When win7 was installed on both systems, homegroup created on 1 system was not recognized by the other. Had to manually assign IP 192.168.1.1 & 192.168.1.2 respectively on each pc & then start>run>\\192.168.1.2
Homegroup should have worked but don't know why.
