3.2 Getting Started
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.
