Ok, well I'll try to walk you through creating a network...  it 
shouldn't be too difficult with 2 Win7 computers.
First, are you sure you have a wireless router?  You can't do wireless 
without a wireless router - even if the computers support wireless.  
What is you ISP?  Did they give you the router (and or modem)?

Boot up both PC's and look in the system tray (the very bottom right of 
the screen).  There'll be some little icons there.  See if there's one 
that looks like a series of little cell phone bars.  You might have to 
click the little down arrow and choose to "show all icons".  If you 
hover over the cell phone bars a pop up will say something like "Network 
Connection".  If you find this icon, click it one time and a window will 
open up showing all the available wireless networks in range of your 
computer.  You just have to figure out which one is yours - usually it's 
the one with the strongest signal.  Double click your network and you'll 
be asked for a key. The key is a series of letters and numbers that you 
can get from looking at your router.  It'll be written on the bottom or 
back in small print.  Input that number and you'll be connected.

If you don't see the little cell phone bar icon in the system tray, 
repost and we can try to find the available connections a different way.

Good luck,
Donk
