| 259573 | 2004-08-08 10:26:00 | I have 2 Computers - one running 95 and the other ME. Both seem to support USB so can i link them together using USB cables somehow? i only want to transfer files from each one to the other. | Sucloya (5015) | ||
| 259574 | 2004-08-08 10:35:00 | You can, but with windows 95 it would be an absolute pain. The easiest thing you can do is buy two network cards (like $16 from DSE each), and a crossover cable ($20 from dse), and set them up according the FAQ on this site. Search for it. |

| 259576 | 2004-08-08 11:31:00 | The other solution is to put the hard drive that has the data you want into the one you want to transfer it to. | Susan B (19) | ||

| 259578 | 2004-08-08 12:15:00 | Or if your version of Win95 supports USB you could try a pen drive / memory stick from Dick Smith (there are articles on the web about USB support for Win95 - you may want to google it first). | andrew93 (249) | ||
| 259579 | 2004-08-08 12:18:00 | Are they small enough to fit onto floppies? Or a whole bunch of floppies? Or a few thousand floppies? |

| 259580 | 2004-08-08 22:04:00 | Yeah the Windows 95 version supports USB. I *Think* it's The 2nd release..... | Sucloya (5015) | ||
