| | Easy Transfer Cable - Vista To Vista Hi, I have a belkin easy transfer cable and was wondering if I can use it to transfer files from one vista machine to another. I don't really it to migrate user settings, programs, documents etc. Basically I just want some very large files moved from machine to another (In the fastest way possible). I was wondering if there was someway I can plug in the cable in both computers and see the other computer as an External hard drive or a network machine etc. so I can just drag-and- drop my files from one machine to the other. Any help would be much appreciated. |

| | Re: Easy Transfer Cable - Vista To Vista The cable is only half the battle, software is also necessary to make this sort of connection. If the cable came with none, then you cannot. -- Richard G.

| | Re: Easy Transfer Cable - Vista To Vista Errrmm... that doesn't seem to mention the Belkin easy transfer USB to USB cable anywhere. I am looking for a direct connection between two computer's solution. For situations when the LAN is not available or too slow.

| | Re: Easy Transfer Cable - Vista To Vista COOL !! I wish I had bought this. I remember searching for something like that a while ago but don't remember finding one. Everything on Microsoft seemed to recommend the belkin cable as the USB transfer solution for vista. Now that i bought it for $100, i am hoping it does a proper file transfers, rather than just an XP to Vista migration (even if i have to install custom software on my vista machines) On Nov 21, 9:31 pm, "SG" <nom...@xxxxxx> wrote: Quote: > Hi, > > IMO, this is the best little gadget I've ever bought and used.http://www.datadrivethru.com/products.htm > > All the best, > SG > > <nyathan...@xxxxxx> wrote in message > > news:0d62c653-4faa-4422-97c9-08e0452a2b26@xxxxxx > Quote: > > Hi, > > I have abelkineasy transfer cable and was wondering if I can use it > > to transfer files from one vista machine to another.

| | Re: Easy Transfer Cable - Vista To Vista Hi Ya Richard, Thanks for the link, I'll book mark this and give my customers two choices now. It's the same price I paid for the Tornado plus I got a copy of PC Eraser free, but probably will never use it unless my wife goes to snooping :>) Happy Thanksgiving All the best my friend, SG "Richard G.
