Exploring Network Places, locks up my WinMe pc

I have 2 computers connected using a crossed cable,
everything goes fine (the other pc is using win xp), but
when I start copying files (or any other related activity -
playing musinc from that pc for example), my win me
computer locks up (but the other one remains active).
Sometimes I use that 'map network drive' feature but it's
the same problem. I've also noticed that my system
resources start dropping from 96% to 14%, 10% and then it
just locks up.

I should say that I didn't have this problem while using
Win98SE (by the way, I made a clean WinMe install).

The WinMe system specs: k6-2 300mhz, 160mb ram, and 4gb
drive (1gb used).

The WinXP system specs: p4 2.4ghz, 256mb ram, 30gb hdd.

I hope this issue can be fixed, Thanks.
