Is it possible to use Direct Cable Connect from Win 3.1 (laptop) to a Win 98se (desktop) using a null modem cable? and how would I go about it.

Thanks all for your help,

See this thread:
how to instal win95 without cd-rom drive (http://discussions.virtualdr.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17516&highlight=how+to+instal+win95+without+cdrom+drive).

Also see Direct Cable Connection (http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/dccmain.htm) for more information. If this is a one time thing, Interlink can get you by. If you want to network routinly, LAN is far easier and can do much more.

The last time I checked, I think you CANNOT use Modem cables. I think Direct Cable Connection specializes in Parallel and Serial cables.

If you want to use a modem cable, you should use the LapLink software.

HondaNSX12, NUL Modem is a serial or parallel cable!
