Default Trying to connect 2 PC's to internet via switch


Hello,

I am trying to connect 2 PC's (well a PC running XP and a laptop running vista) via a switch (BenQ SP0005). At the moment i have the broadband router (Virgin media), the PC and the laptop all connected to the switch. I am trying to set-up internet access for both the PC and the laptop. I have been told that i will need 2 network cards in the host PC? I am not too sure about this. I was under the impression that if i enabled ICS in the host machine then i could do it this way? Any ideas guys?
