why don’t computers now have serial ports for easy file transfer using windows xp instead of buying software t
win xp has a file transfer system between computers that requires a cable connection beteen their serial ports but now most computers do not have serial ports so cant use this method must buy software to use usb connection or buy hardware to make a local network.i have 2 compaqs one with only floppy drive and new one with only dvd drive so a cable transfer is only option other than using something like a zip drive wiin xp makes it easy buy requires only serial ports WHY?
What’s the best and/or fastest way to defrag a hard drive? (and how long does it take?)?
Note: I’m interested in FREE ways only. I’m not buying software for this.
I have a laptop with Windows XP and an 80 Gig hard drive.
thrashaero, thanks! I had no idea I had to have so much empty space on the drive. Mine is almost full, so I guess I won’t do it right now.
