Hi Tom

... this should do the
job for you, a USB to USB data link cable from here:

http://www.revealcable.co.uk/acatalog/USB_Adapters.html#aAA_2d1677

Scroll down to the one called AA-1677. You load a small prog onto both PCs 
called PC-Linq, supplied
on CD and then you can look and see what data you wish to transfer and just 
drag and drop in a dual
window showing the contents of both PCs

You can in fact transfer any files/ data you wish, including software but the 
software will not
function because it has to be installed and registered in the Registry.  Having 
said that, there are
some older dos programs that can simply be transferred and they will function.

I sent a message earlier regarding transferring data from an older computer to 
a new one.  Someone
responded with a website that sells a transfer cable.  I was told by someone in 
the computer store
that if both have WinXP, you can transfer data simply with a USB cable with the 
appropriate
connectors on each end.  Well, he also told me that you can only transfer data, 
that is photos,
documents, videos, etc., but you can't transfer software.
