From laptop to "old" desktop you need to use a cross network cable,
the two laptops are new and can auto detect the cable type used but
not the old pc.
Get a cross cable or connect through a hub or switch.
In my experience, you don't need two autodetecting cards for a straight
cable to work, one is enough. You'd need a crossover cable only if you
try to connect two oldish machines, both without an autodetecting card.
But I guess it may all depend on the particular card and its
implementation of 'autodetection'.
