RE: [PCTECH] Backup data from a laptop

["Peter Vidal" <Peter_Vidal@xxxxxxxx>]

"I would suggest fixing the Win98 rather than going to ME, unless you are
prepared for the thousands of fixes and/or errors in ME. In earlier versions
of Symantec products, there was an Uninstall utility that would allow you to
uninstall/save for later use. I used to use it to save space.
A very long time ago, we used to use a DB9 to DB9 serial cable to connect
two PC's and use HyperTerminal to connect the two systems. We transferred
files using the Com ports. I haven't done it in about 7 years. The only
other alternative to actually back the data up would be to use WinZip or
another zip utility that would allow you to span across floppy disks.

Good luck,
John Brandt"

Thanks John.  I will see if I can find one of those cables and see if I can give
it a try.  If not, I will go with WINZIP and floppies...
