Thanks, for the answers, but some of you have to read the question first!!!

Answer 1

best of luck!

Answer 2

As if you don't give information where both computers are located, here are some possible answers for cases I can think of.
1. Both computers are located in the same local network.

U can still use your network, although your default gateway to the internet is down. You have to enable Netbeui(or something like that) on your network interface settings. And create shares to do it.

Another option if both computers are close to each other is to use a correct USB-cable, but I've never done this myself.

2. In the other case, when there is really no physical connection. You'll have to deliver the files personally. Best way is to use an external Hard Disk of if it's big enough for your files maybe some USB flash stick.

Answer 3

Transferring files becomes a bit difficult when you eliminate networking AND the more common removable media forms (CDs, etc). You can still network your computers even without internet access. The computers won't be able to go to the internet (obviously), but they can still talk to each other. But other than that, just about all the other possibilties have been covered here.

Answer 4

If both computers have USB ports, then you should get a jump drive. A small gizmo that holds from 128 mb upwards depending on the price you want pay. Plug into 1st computer, save files to it, unplug it and plug into 2nd computer. Access files using windows explorer.

Answer 5

You can transfer your files through a router or with a special parallel cable connected to your printer port. The best way is through the router because it's faster, but you have to set it up first. With WinXP, it's very easy. Go to control panel, select network wizard.

Answer 6

you can use a serial cable or use an usb pen drive but a serial cable is better as pen drives have a short and limited memory and using serial cable is like connecting two computers hard drives for file sharing

Answer 7

it's possible, if they are near you can connect them directly with a cable (LPT) or printer and then transfer data easily with a program like NC , or in windows Xp from start -all programms-acesories- system tools- file & setting transfer wizard. you can use this wizard to transfer data.


good luck
