Question:

network cable data transfer?

i need to transfer data between 2 laptops (windows 7). I got to know that network cable can do it. What is the procedure. What cable should i buy? Please say it simply coz i dnt knw anything abt netwrking.

Answer:

To directly link the two together with just a cable, you need a special ethernet cable called a crossover, these can be bought from amazon really cheap. Plug one end into each computer, then on each you need to share the drives. So right click a drive letter and select share this drive, once done you can explorer to each and copy the files.
I believe you will need a crossover cable for that.
