Summary: Would like to transfer hard disk info to new PC Message-ID: <1990Nov5.155752.6728@Solbourne.COM> Date: 5 Nov 90 15:57:52 GMT Sender: news@Solbourne.COM Organization: Solbourne Computer, Inc. Lines: 11 We are expecting a new 286 soon. I would like to transfer the info from my existing XT hard drive to the new machine; is there a way to transfer this info through the serial port? Since the old machine has 5 1/4 floppies and the new sports 3 1/2's, a simple backup and restore will be difficult. Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- _-^-_ | Dave Polakowski (303)678-4700 / O O \ | Solbourne Computer, Inc. ---((((---'---U---`---))))--- | Longmont, Colorado DAVE WAS HERE! | [polo@Solbourne.COM]
