Transfering data

If the two computers have Network Interface Card in each one of them you can use the crossover cable and connect them together.
I will tell you some easy steps so you can share data between the two computers.
After you connect the cable go to Control Panel- Network Connections - Right click on Local Area Connection and click on Properties, Double click on Internet protocol.
Now set the IP address to something like "10.10.10.1" and the subnet mask to "255.255.255.0"
Now go to the other computer and do the exact same steps but this time make the IP address a little different like "10.10.10.2"

Now that you have a connection between the 2 computers you can right click on any Drive or Folder and click Sharing and Security.
Click on just enable file sharing and share the folders.
Assuming you shared a folder on computer number 1.
Go to computer number 2 and click on Start-Run and type this without quotes "\\10.10.10.1"
Now you can copy data. :)
