I have a USB crossover cable left over from a "Transfer MyPC" software kit,
can I use this to set-up a peer-to-peer network with my Laptop?
TIA

mmcr said:It's just the software is only deisgned to transfer files via it's own
limited application. I want to set up a simple network so I can use
another
piece of software to synchronise files from Outlook on my laptop with my
desktop and the software that comse wiht the cable can't do that!

so just trying to make best use of what I have. So can it be done
