How to transfer data from Windows ME desktop computer without Internet, CD burner, or USB drive to XP laptop?

January 3, 2010

I have a Windows ME desktop from which I am trying to transfer data to an XP laptop. What I have tried so far:

Computer has a D-link Airplus DWL-G520 rev. B wireless adapter but it will not connect to my wireless network. Ran some troubleshooting software and searched on D-link website for help but to no avail.

A CD burner was physically installed into one of the available slots but the computer does not have software for burning. I tried downloading BurnAware, a free software program, but when trying to install it I get the error message "_regdll has caused an error in NMSDVDXU.DLL. _regdll will now close." and it will not install. I tried running a registry cleaner but it did not help.

Computer has no USB ports.

Is there some kind of cable I can use to directly connect this desktop computer to my new laptop and directly transfer data? Where can I buy one? The ME computer seems to have quite a few errors on it so hopefully there is no involved software installation which might not work.

Thank you very much, I appreciate any input!!

Qustions about upgrading RAM?

September 10, 2009

I am wanting to add some more RAM to my computer. But I don’t know what to get. Mine is a custom built computer so I cant go by brand and model. I do however have the owners manual for my mother board.

This is the information listed;
FOXCONN 865A01 User manual. four 184-pin slots with DDR DIMM for installation of DDR 400/333/226 memory bank.

The computer that I want to add RAM to has never been hooked to the internet and has no virus or firewall software so internet diagnostic is not possible. That computer has been dedicated to at home gaming and personal projects. I want to get it upgraded and ready to hook up to internet to play WoW.

I looked inside, and I am only using two of the four slots. I remember them telling me when the system was built, it was shared RAM. But the original RAM was only 256MB and that went bad after about a year and they replaced it with 512MB RAM So that’s what I have, a total of 512MB of ram. I want to upgrade up to a Gigabyte.

Couple of questions; Can I just add a couple more memory banks? Does it matter if they are the same brand or not? Do I have to replace the ones I have and get all new when I do the upgrade. Does RAM have some kind of driver like video cards or is it some thing the computer just automatically recognizes and uses? which do I have the 400/333/226? If I can just add to what I have, what should it be?
Mother boards max RAM is 1G & my operating system is XP.
