| | Re: Vista File Transfers Right. What type of files would you like to transfer? Simple documents can be transfered using a floppy or flash drive, while larger can be transfered by cd, dvd, or a transfer cable. Also, a simple network could be established between the two. If you are looking to backup or transfer your settings to a new computer, windows has wizards for that.
