Where your Node Type says "Unknown" it should say "Hybrid"

Edit Registry and set DhcpNodeType to 8 (do a search here for how to do it)

ok...first on the pc with SP2 ..in control panel/network connections..right click on local area connection/properties....click on the authentication tab....make sure Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network is NOT checked.

on both computers do the following
go back to the general tab..click on TCP/IP..click properties...
click on the alternate configuration tab Automatic Private IP address...

Or assign static private IP addresses.(192.168.0.1-192.168.255.254)
I would use 192.168.1.1 for PC1 and 192.168.1.2 for PC2

You say you are using a switch?? power it off for 30 seconds..start it back up and reboot both PCs...
