How to transfer data from pc to pc?

[loddie]

For 10gb or less, transfer with a crossover cable, otherwise, taking the hdd out and putting it in the other pc is probaly the best solution.

Okay guys, Ive set up the network and i think it is working fine. I can even use internet from the other computer using this internet connection. BUT I CANT FIND A WAY TO TRANSFER FILES!!! Some help pronto!! I am very pissed and cat take it anymore!!! what should i do?

EDIT: I already installed netbeui, but i dont know what to do with it.

you don't do anything with netbui, actually. Go to 'My network places'. Click on 'View workgroup computers' on the left pane. I you see both computers you're good. otherise, more info is needed.

if you want the quickest solution, take out the hd with the data on it, and install it as a slave (dont forget to change the jumpers) on the new machine. then just c&p the files. cheapewr that buying a cable, and faster.

Would it make a difference if you used the HD with the data as a Master and the new HD as a slave?
