Just got new puter with Windows XP home edition and there is no floppy drive so i took the portable floppy from my old win98 laptop and plugged into what is the printer port which is same place i used on laptop. How do i get the winXP to recognize the floppy? Is there any other way to transfer file from my win 98 to winXP. Do not have a cd burner with win98 puter :(

Downld XP driver for your floppy drive. setting a network or using a USB stick is another form of data transfer between 2 PC's. .
