What about WIN2000 on the laptop?
by proush01 - 4/15/05 6:48 AM In reply to: 4/15/05 Transferring files and sharing a printer between PCs by Lee Koo (ADMIN)
I have a similar configuration, except that my laptop is running Windows 2000, not XP. Is there some info out there that can help me share my printer. Files would be a plus, but not neccessary.
Same Boat (desktop XP, laptop 2000)
by l_batson - 4/15/05 11:54 AM In reply to: What about WIN2000 on the laptop? by proush01I'm in the same boat as you proush01. My desktop is XP and my laptop is 2000. I can share files on the laptop and the XP machine can see them just fine. But I can't get the laptop to recognize the network in order for it to see the printer I have shared.
Wired LAN PC1 (WXPSP2) to PC2 (W98SE) do not work
by Lucho - 4/15/05 8:10 AM In reply to: 4/15/05 Transferring files and sharing a printer between PCs by Lee Koo (ADMIN)
Please help.
I have a wired mini LAN between my PC1 (WXP SP2), which has direct connection to Internet via ADSL (miniport W A N PPPOE) and also a D-link FDE-530TX PCI fast ethernet card connected to a cross over cable, connected to a cardbus adapter D-link DFE-690TXD pluged into my PC2 laptop (W98SE).
I do have access to internet on my laptop (which indicates me that electrically, the connection between both computers is OK), but even having shared files on both PC's, I do not "see each other computer". Neither access from my laptop (W98SE)to the printer connected to my PC1 (WXP SP2).
Transferring files and sharing a printer between PCs

To transfer files from one pc to another or laptop I use the USB File Transfer GeneLink 1.11A program. The kit includes one cable that connects one pc to the other and an installation CD. When you activate the program in both computers you see in both screens the explore menus of the local and remote computer, then you transfer files from anywhere to anywhere. its very easy, simple and speedy.
Also to activate a printer from each computer I have a very easy and direct item:the Data Transfer Switch ( from Ednet ). It have entrance for the cables from each computer and also the printer is connected to it
You activate it manually to A or B. Very simply.

Using GeneLink 1.11A
by injunrob9 - 11/5/06 10:36 PM In reply to: transferring files via genelink 1.1a by hollyg88As far as I know, yes you do need to install the software on both pcs. I had some issues using it at first,.....then I just used the "compatibility" mode and it worked just fine. You probably already figured it all out by now,.....it only took me about 6 minutes.
Transfer Cable
by King Homie - 6/18/08 10:19 AM In reply to: Using GeneLink 1.11A by injunrob9I have the transfer cable and as was said it is a blessing but, you can NOT use it between XP and Vista Vista will not accept the cable software. YES!! you do have to enter the software in both computers. Have fuin, I do!!!!!!
