I am trying to directly connect my laptop (Windows 98)
with direct cable connect by the following path
(Programs/Accessories/Communication/Direct cable
connect). However, when I go to my desktop (Windows 2000)
and follow (Programs/Accessories/Communication/...) there
is no Direct Cable Connection. Was it moved or not put in
2000? What is the step by step procedure?
