Trying to share my internet through a cross over cable to my other computer. Comp 1 says that it has internet access and is connected. Comp 2 has the yellow triangle but no internet connection.

I had home group working originally so there was a connection between the computers but still no internet. But now i cant even get homegroup to work .

Also normal internet does work perfectly. But sharing internet between two computers doesn't.
 
Solution
When you setup the shared connection it should have asked you if you wanted to setup a configuration file for the other system, did you do that and run it? If not, make sure your network info is correct for the connection, including IP, DNS and Gateway.
