I was very disapointed as I was not able to transfer any files with this cable.
So forget using the cable on a W2K machine. GREAT Hardware (the cable) - driver support is lacking - TO MUCH WORRY about file sharing / DRM.
It was a lot cheaper than the cable that HP was selling on their site. I bought this product to transfer files from my windows xp pc to my new windows vista. It transfered all the programs and settings with ease.
Do NOT try to transfer your whole computer files and settings.it takes FAR too long.2. Recognize that transferring programs does not guarantee that it will install on your computer (most of the time it won't).4.
You may need to disable your firewall. IMPORTANT: if a red x appears anywhere on your screen, it means the transfer is NOT working.
I gave this product 1 star (my first ever) because the manual that comes with this product is awful.Here are a few things to remember when using this product. 3.
I recommend also disconnecting from the internet so that you do not make your computer vunerable to virus/or harmful software.Because of the LACK of technical product information supplied with this product i have wasted basically a day trying to get this thing to work. They have mentioned by other reviewers too.1.
Always use the advanced options tab and just choose the folders that you need.
Why does it have an option(reccomended even).to download all user accounts and settings when obviously it can never do this.Shuts down every time(flashing USB icon with red x)
