Using Smart Connect - Sony PCG-XG38 Primary User Manual

Using Smart Connect

Windows Me
You can connect your VAIO® notebook to another VAIO computer that has the
preinstalled Windows Me operating system or the Sony Smart Connect 3.0
software preinstalled. You may use an i.LINK® cable (optional) to connect the
two systems and then use one computer to edit, copy, or delete files on the other
computer. You can also print from a printer that is attached to either computer.
Select the STD mode in Smart Connect 3.0 software to connect with another
VAIO computer that has Windows Me preinstalled.
Connecting with an i.Link Cable
Windows 2000
The preinstalled Smart Connect software allows you to use an i.LINK® cable
(optional) to connect your VAIO notebook to another VAIO computer that also
has Smart Connect or preinstalled Windows Me. You can then use one computer
to edit, copy or delete files on the other computer. You can also print from a
printer attached to either computer.
See Smart Connect online help for more information.
When you connect two VAIO computers, you must assign each computer a unique
name. The computers can be identified by this unique name when the two computers
are networked together.
If you have previously purchased a VAIO computer or notebook that does not have the
Windows Me operating system or Smart Connect 3.0 software preinstalled, consult
the Sony website for support options (http://www.sony.com/pcsupport).
