I'm trying to transfer data from my laptop to a barebones desktop using a
Radio Shack USB to Serial cable..both systems running XP Home...proper driver
installed on both...when I run the Transfer Wiz and click autodetect they
just kind of loop and when I stop them I get notified that they were unable
to find each other..imagine that...any suggestions will be greatly
appreciated.
 
I am having a very similar problem. I have connected a laptop running
Windows 95 to a desktop running Windows XP. Connection via RS232C RadioShack
Cable, DB9 connectors on both ends to 9 pin serial ports on both computers.
I used the XP File Transfer Wizard. I get the exact same results you do.
Let me know if you get a solution and I will do the same.
