What version of windows and what router do you have?

gamerule9

D-Link (DI-604) and windows xp pro on the host and windows xp home on the client

the host is also running a FAT 32 system on the hard drive and the client is using NTFS. I heard that that can cause a problem on file sharing and stuff

that is your problem over there, why you set your client to not received a DHCP address. In simple ICS world - eventhough you set the clients IP addr the same as your DHCP server - it will not be connected to outer world via your gateway.. because it will not be authenticated as DHCP client (will not received any DHCP parameters)

how do i enable dhcp on the client, networking is wacky

gabilan

Right click My network places icon that is in the desktop

Choose properties from the menu

This will bring the network connection window

Right click over the icon that represent your network interface card and choose properties.

This will bring another window check Internet Protocol and click the properties button

This bring another window, here check Obtain ip address automatically and obtain DNS Server address automatically click OK
