I just use XP's 'Network Setup Wizard', found in control panel never failed me yet providing your got the hub and cables set properly. Use the Wizard on both pcs then restart and every thing should be working. Can't comment with Win7 but when i had one pc running Vista and other XP the vista os found the network on the first start up. Ubuntu was even better no need to do anything network was auto setup after installation.
