Direct Cable Connection does not work with Windows 3.1. You can however transfer between the 2 with the correct cable and LapLink or FastLynx

Hi Ron
If your laptop is running dos6.22,
(check by going into the dos prompt & typing ver)
type help and read about interserver and interlink

It will give you the cable connections for a data transfer lead.
