I just aquired a new computer today so I don't have to lug my laptop every where. My problem is I want to be able to transfer all of my files and hopefully progams between the two.
Here are the basic stats
Old computer - Sony Vaio Laptop PCG-XG28
- DVD Drive
-external burner
-window 98 with all updates
New computer - Dell Latitude
-DVD Drive
-can probably install external burner
-windows 2000 nt
Both have infrared ports so I was hoping to just line them up, but I couldn't get it to work. I am thinking that I could just put everything onto a disk and transfer it but I don't know if I can do this with programs.
heres the edit
Is there anyway I can set these up to be able to access each other from different places. Like send a print to work from home or such?
The main programs I want to transfer is Office 2000, ACT 2000. This Dell doesn't ahve a thing on it at all.
If there is a way I can plug a cable between them it would be ideal. Also how hard would it be to network them so I could plug one in and it would be able to access the printers and scanner and internet without having to swap all of the wires?
I know this is a lot but any help would be appreciated.
