I tried it a few minutes ago, and I can't seem to get it to work for some reason. When I attempt to connect via my old laptop with a linksys nic, it keeps crashing. I think it is a Linksys driver issue, per the crash dump.
However, it does show up as an ad-hoc wireless access point in the PC's list of available networks. You can also use wep encryption.

What version of windows do you have on laptop, if Windows XP and if so are you using Service Pack 3? SP3 has know issues at times that acts the way you describe if system was updated to SP3 from SP2 with WEP2 patch installed before Service Pack upgrade...
