Anybody got a DOS utility to link 2 PCs via USB ports? No, this is not a w2k question. This is a boot on DOS and xfer files to a laptop with broke CD question. And, yes I have laplink and an LPT to LPT cable but that takes half of forever. TIA M2 Mechanix2@Golden-Triangle.com

Half of forever is still shorter than never. The problem is the lack of support for USB in DOS. Maybe a better solution would be to install network adapters and use ethernet. At least there is support for networking in DOS and Windows.

w-f, Exactly right, of course. I'll go look for a PCMDIC NIC with DOS drivers. TY M2 Mechanix2@Golden-Triangle.com
