Hi Jason,
This may be a long way, but why don't you copy your files from the 98
computer to a flash disk and then take the disk after safely removing
it and insert it to the XP computer? Then you can copy the files from
it and paste them to the external drive.
I did that years ago when I had a 98 computer and brought them over
to my XP computer which were later backed up to my external drive.
Take care.

Hi list.
I have some old files on an old desktop computer running windows 98
second edition. I want to move these files onto an external USB
drive that I have. So I can access them on my desktop running XP
home. However, as I understand it. The 98 system is probably
formatted in fat 32. While I think this external hard drive is
formatted in NTFS. If I plug in the drive to the 98 machine? Can I
just use the send to option to transfer the files? I think I may
have had trouble having the drive being recognized by the 98 machine
before. If this is true? Can I get around this issue?
Thanks Jason
