direct cable connection
 

i tried 2 hook 2 computers up with normal windows direct cable connection. i took a parallel port cable i had and hook it 2 both comps and then did the direction connection thing and it says on the host is the guest on and it says on the guest it cant find the host.... Any suggestion?

ummm you cant use a normal parallel cable... it has to be a cross over parallel cable...

like where u get that?

search for parallel laplink cables.

you get it from the computer store or you make it yourself

well now its earier and much faster o use usb laplink syle cables
