Corona688 is correct. Generally no need for a crossover cable for Gigabit NICs.
If you connect these systems into your network, can they communicate with each other?
I see you have other network adapters in your systems. Are they in use?
Are you using the exact same NICs (make, model#, driver) on both systems? NC373i?
