BFME2 LAN problem

Hi all
I am writing concerning a problem with BFME2 (battle for middle earth 2) I have 2 computers at home and have been playing this game over the LAN recently, though I have encountered some problems with LAN play lately for some reason every time we start a game it says "hero data cannot be transfered" and after restarting the server the game crashes if anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

Oh btw hes the specs for both my computers: 1: Vista Home premium, Intel Core 2 duo 2.20ghz, 2Gb DDR2 RAM, ATI Radeon 2400 HD pro, 2: XP
home edition service pack 2, Intel Pentium 4 2.93ghz, 1.5Gb DDR RAM, ATI Radeon x300.

Recently I have tried re-installing the game on both computers and even
"down-grading" both graphics cards to a version the game previously worked on but to no avail. I contacted EA but they gave me advice such as cleaning the temporary file folders and stopping all unnecessary processes but that was no help. it still comes up with same error message
(Unable to transfer hero data) on the Vista computer and on the Xp computer it loads, locks up and says the other person has left the game. IF ANYONE has any help i would really appreciate it
