Full Version: How do I transfer files using a crossover cable
I am trying to transfer files from one pc to another pc. Both use XP. I actually need step by step instructions to help me get it started. Any help, will be much appreciated. Thanxs
is the other computer no good or what because if you want to keep the data you can remove your hard drive from the other computer make it a slave and install it on the computer you want the data on. let me no if that is what you are trying to dso.
Do both of these computers have NIC cards?
Just to elaborate on the above posts, NIC card refers to a network interface card wich is used to connect to wireless networks.

Wireless networks, or routers, or cable or dsl modems, or to make a connection between two computers.
Many many years ago this was done with a "null modem" cable.
It's much easier now to just move a hd from 1 pc to the other or burn the files to a cd-r or dv-r.
A removeable hard drive case Makes it even easier.
