3.2.1 Installation Checklist

 For computers without a CD Drive, the CD contents can be copied to a USB flash
drive or downloaded from www.cablematters.com/downloads.
 The Registration Code (on the CD sleeve) is required to install the Easy Computer
Sync software and allows the software to be installed on 4 computers. Keep it in a
safe place.
 Install the Easy Computer Sync software first! Both the source and target
computers require 20 MB of hard disk space to install the software.
 Check for sufficient hard disk space on both computers for transferring files.
 Most transfers require Administrator access on both computers.
 Close all unnecessary programs and run a fresh virus scan before transferring data.
 Temporarily close your anti-virus software if it prevents the software installation.
 Backup files or setup a restore point before any major migration of data.
 Both computers should be connected to a power source since transfer times can vary.
 Programs installed on the source computer cannot be transferred, they must be
reinstalled.
 Do not connect the Easy Transfer Cable through a USB hub.
 Both Windows operating systems must be using the same language.
 Verify that the USB ports on both computers are functioning and will transfer at a
minimum USB 2.0 rate.
