Why don't links to other pages on my computer work in HTML?

when on the computer your link should look something like this

<a href="//c/mydocuments/user/abou1.html"</a> (You need to link it to the location on your computer)

However when you are linking online the link will look like the following

<a href="pages/abou1.html"</a> (You need to link it to the location on your server.)
 
If I make 2 HTML pages, I create a link <a href=(whatever the link is)</a> They work if it is a link to a page on the iternet, but not if the page is on my HD. Why won't it work?

Thanks.
