I have been trying to make the transfer wizzard work on
Windows XP. I first tried a serial cable as it suggested
and that didn't work. I then tried a cat 5 crossover
cable. Neither are working to make the computers
communicate with each other when I run the wizzard.
Please advise.

Thanks

.your going to have to set the xp machine up as the host
machine and the other as a workstaion. once you have done
this then map a drive to the work station and after taht
you should be able to transferr data...RB>
