yeah both work when connected alone i even tested the router by bringing it to my house and plugging my 2 computers into it and everything worked fine we even have the same internet but for some reason when connecting his computers only one computer will work at a time.

Do you get a message saying there is an IP conflict?

nope but doesn't mean that it couldn't be the problem as i getting very very tired of this thing like this are why I build computers not networks and another thing that might be the problem one computer is a newer computer I think it's a gateway with pentium d and the other is an old computer thats about 5-8 years old with I believe an AMD K6 so i think he just needs to get rid of the K6 and let me build another computer for him

I ran into this exact same problem before. After messing with it for hours, I finally ended up reinstalling windows on the older computer. After I did that everything worked. Not the quickest solution, but worth a shot.
