I want to transfer data from my desktop to a laptop. Is there a way to connect the laptop to the desktop & use it like a flash drive where I can just copy & paste? Both systems are running XP. Thanks!

Answer
I'd use a USB Flashdrive and copy my data onto it. then use the flashdrive to put it on the other computer.
Easy as pie.

You can also use a crossover cable (a network cable that connects to the network ports of both PCs). Once they are networked, you can just copy and paste info from one computer to the next.

I have heard that I can transfer data (in this case 70GB of music) from my desktop computer to my laptop computer by way of my wireless network. Does this mean that I can just send them directly from one computer to another? Or do I need to set something up?

Riven

I have a NTFS windows XP system and when I try to transfer data to my external hard drive that is greater than 4 gig I get a message stating there is not enough free disk space. The hard drive has 500gigs and I know I have at least 300gigs free. Does anyone know how to transfer the data without any problems?
I still have over 150gigs of free space in my internal hard drive and my external hard drive is NTFS also.

What is the best way to transfer data between 2 computers?

Satan's Ad

Is it possible to transfer data with just a RJ-45 cable, or do I need to get an expensive USB data transfer cable? I have done it with a wireless network in the past, but it is extremely slow. It took about 24 hours to transfer 15 gigs. What should I do?

Answer
The best way to do this is using a Crossover Ethernet cable. You can plug one end of this onto the network port on one computer, and the other end into the network port on the second computer. This connects the two directly with speeds up to 1gbps (approx. 20 times faster than standard 54mbps wireless)

You will need to set up a shared folder, though, and make sure the wireless connection is DISABLED, as the wireless will automatically override the wired connection :)

I am using Windows XP as my operating system, plan to purchase a laptop, but Vista is now the current operating systems in new laptops. Can I transfer data using the usb 2 port between the computers. I could not locate any information on Windows XP help, I find their help usually is not much help at all.

Answer
Go to Worldstart.com Then click on the Software Store,(top left of the page). In this screen, on the lefthand side you'll see Cool Gadgets, click. Then on this screen scroll down until you see Direct LinQ USB 1x Data Transfer Cable, click. Costs 9.95,(believe free shipping), and it works great! We change computers about every six months, and this saves tremendous hours! Don't be fooled by the price, their quality is excellent!

Answer
Several ways.

You could use a USB bridge cable to directly connect the two computers and transfer files the way you move them around between folders.

You could use a USB flash drive if the files aren't that big.

You could use a portable hard drive if you have a lot of large files.

You could burn them onto a CD using your laptop and copy them from the CD using your home computer.
