how do i do this through aim? Can i use a hun instead of a router?

just get 2 network cards and a cross over network cable, then the rest is easy

Beware of killer hamsters and the random running dogs.

you can just use windows to set up a network between computers, and open folders on your old computer from your new comp, and transfer stuff that way...

you don't need to use aim or icq or anything.

slap on your old hard drive (slave) to your new one (master)

each IDE card has room for 2 drives: a master and a slave

you'll have to change the pins to differentiate it as a master or a slave

once you do this, your computer should recognize both drives and you can copy hd to hd

of course on your new master drive, you'll need to set your new os partition as the active partition

hello thar

Yeah once you have your new harddrive up and running with all ur appz and OS and stuff, just stick the old comp's hard drive in with it. Copy across everything u need, and presto!

If u can't do that, do what someone else said and get two network cards and some crossover cable. Transfer em over the ether .. make sure u get 100 megabit cards though .. 10 megabits is hella slow when ur copying 20gigs .. trust me i've been there

Make an FTP or network ur computers together directly, can get around 100MBS that way.

How do you network the computers? what kind of hardware do you need to do this?
