Hi all,


I have two PCs. One is running Windows XP SP3 and the other is running Windows 7.
My current ISP has provided a multiple-port MODEM (4 ports) for me. Two PCs are wire-connected to two of the four ports of this MODEM to access the Internet.
Every time when I need to access the Internet, I just have to input my ISP user ID and password.

Here is the question, I want to share some photo files in Windows XP with Windows 7,
I don't have a crossover cable, so is it possible to make use of this multiple-port MODEM to solve this question?

Thank you.Well, online you could use a file sharing service LIKE Google Drive to transfer/sync files between the two. Or, if you're preferring a direct physical connection, I'd think simply using a flash drive would be easiest to transfer files.Or send them by email.
The OP says the modem has four ports. So it is some kind of router.
Thee are articles WRITTEN about how to share between XP and Windows 7.
Here is one:

Sharing folders between two Windows 7 machines with the new HOMEGROUP feature is an easy process, but the HomeGroup feature is not compatible with Vista or XP. For this tutorial we are using Windows 7 x64 RC1 and XP Professional SP3 connected through a basic Linksys HOME wireless router.
