Internet connection sharing with wireless

How do I set up Internet connection sharing on my windows XP pro
computer? I have cable internet connected to a wireless router with 3
computers connected to it using Cat 5 cable. Then My XP pro computer is
on the other side of the house with a wireless network card I also have
a ethernet card in it. I want to be able to share internet on the
wireless computer so I can connect my xbox and playstation to the
computer to get internet without buying a wireless adapter that
converts wireless to ethernet I think they call them Gaming Adapters I
have tryed to setup the ICS on xp but it says "there is a lan
connection that is already configured with the ip address that is
required for automatic IP addressing" I have heard that is uses
192.168.0.1 to do this my wireless router uses this IP so I change my
router to 192.168.0.2 and the error still comes up so I am not sure
what do do from there

Is this a repost? Someone else was asking the same thing like a week ago...
Anyway, I'm not going into details, because I've already done it once. heres
a couple of steps.
1)On the computer that is going to "share" the connection, add the ethernet
and the wireless to a network bridge.
2)Connect a crossover cable from said computer to xbox or playstation. (or
to a ethernet router that you can share the connection that way)

enjoy.

That does not work you put the wireless and ethernet into a bridge the
it kills the wireless network and the ethernet and uses the bridges ip
