How are the Macs connecting to the internet? Through a router? If so you should just be able to connect your PC into the router.

How to Connect a PC to an Apple Network
I've worked on Macs for 25 years and have never worked on a PC. My office network is all Macs running Apple OS-X Server 10.4.11. I have a Windows XP machine I want to hook up, really for now only to go online to access an Internet-Explorer-only online course. The PC seems to acknowledge the connection but that's as far as I can get. Could someone guide me through this?

Macs today utilize TCP/IP on a network, so putting that Windows machine on the network shouldn't be hard at all. Are the Macs getting their IP addresses through DHCP or are they statically set?
