Lan troubles XP/ME

I have a desktop with WinXP connected with a cross cable to a laptop with
WinME.

I have configurd the IP of the TCP/IP as it follows:
Desktop 192.168.0.1 - Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Laptop 192.168.0.2 - Subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
I do not have a shared Internet connection and I do not have firewall.
The two PC can see each other, I can also see the shared folders and the
ping it is OK.
Unfortunately it is almost impossible to transfer files: it starts to copy
but after a while the transfer it is interrupted and a warning says
"resource not more available" or other warnings of error.
Sometimes I am able to transfer small files, under 500kb but the speed is
very slow.

Someone can help me?

Thanks
Fabio
