Nope, this old box is NOT connected through ethernet anymore, that is why I use the null modem type of transfer. I know it takes forever, but that is my mistake. I burned copies of every directory I have but one, that one I need now

I am afraid it is about 150 Mb of data, so it will indeed take very long. Anyway, I do need those files now.

I tried another way. I have another PC with W98 in my network, so I thought of using that as the 'guest' and then copy from there to the XP box through my network. That way I don't have to figure out how it works in XP, but the W98 keeps saying "Status: Parallel cable on LTP1 disconnected", which I do not understand.

I'm sure I have setup the host and guest correctly.

Any other takers?
