You'll have to run software on both computers.

If you are not a very technical person, try webcam watchdog 5, it is fairly easy to setup. You'll also need to register a free account on www.camnebula.com Watchdog will detect motion and store the video in the cloud. You can then remote view the video on other devices. I use android phone and tablet, but it should work on other smartphones too.

You'll need to be a network expert with most other solutions. (e.g. setup and configure router, open a port, direct the port to your computers ...etc.)
