Belkin easy transfer cable for windows vista what a waste of time 
2008-07-20
I bought this cable to use the new transfer software in Windows vista. It does not work so I ended up trannsfering all my files by DVD this works much faster and easier and I would not of had to spend all the money to by the cable.
Error, error, erro 2008-07-20
I couldn't get this product to work. All i got was an error message stating that there was an error in scanning my data and easy transfer would now close. No other info at all. I googled the error message and found many others with the same problem. Save your money and get a professional to transfer your data.
Don't buy it 2008-07-19
I spent most of one day trying to get this to work, calling Belkin's helpless desk in some third world country, who spoke broken English. I was trying to move my files (not programs) & settings from a windows XP to a windows Vista computer. Save your time & money, use the windows vista software that comes with the computer, and some kind of storage & transfer device (flash, CD's, portable hard drive). I returned it. Should have paid more attention to the ratings !
WORTHLESS PIECE OF JUNK--RETURNING IT TOMORROW 2008-07-15
I wish I read these reviews before I bought this. I have now wasted two days on this "easy" transfer. I am now in the 8th hour of my second attempt and the program has crashed again. Problem is that it doesn't tell you that the program has froze. It simply says, "Please wait until the transfer is completed" I did this yesterday and waited 24 hours before I realized that the progress bar wasn't moving because the program was not working.
Tried calling Belkin. As usual, a clueless loon from a far away country had no clue about this product.
I remember having a similar experience when I bought one of their routers last year.
Save yourself if you still can and transfer your stuff the old fashion way--with an external drive.

This is a very simple product that makes file transfer easy. You load the software on the old non-Vista computer, plug in the cable, and follow the instructions. I didn't need to transfer all the files, so I could choose which ones to transfer, making it a very fast process. The only problem I see is that now that I have finished using it, I don't need it any more. That's a good reason to buy it on Amazon and save the $20 over store pricing.
double trouble 2008-04-27
With the Belkin Easy Transfer Cable, upgrading to a new computer has never been easier. It offers a quick way to transfer your files and settings from your old computer to a new one. Just install the software provided on the enclosed CD onto your computer. Then, connect each end of the cable to the USB ports on both computers. The Windows Easy Transfer wizard automatically appears and lets you select items to copy. With just a couple of clicks, you can transfer your photos, music, settings, etc.

I was really disappointed when I couldn't install the Easy Transfer Companion to help me transfer files from my old PC (XP Proffessional)to the new one (Vista)
The message was that I should use US English which was what I had on my new PC so till now I've not been able to do the transfer making the cable I bought USELESS.
POS 2008-04-12
This product is a waste of money. The software is junk - crashed halfway through and I couldn't transfer from my other hard-drives. I was hoping that it would create a peer-to-peer connection, but it does not. Until there is some other software for this thing, you are better off with a $5.00 cross-over cable.
Unnecessarily complicated 2008-04-06
"Easy Transfer" - It sounds simply enough. Instead this product makes transferring your files from your old computer a lot more complicated than it needs to be. The process to get it set up properly was overly complicated and you are extremely restricted in how you transferred files. You have to select files and folders using check boxes, instead of being able to just drag and drop files to the new computer. Also, when your computers are transferring they are unaccessible and it is difficult to interrupt the transfer process.
If you have a router (wired/wireless), it would be much easier to transfer across the network using shared folders. I found that this process (which I've done several times before) is less cumbersome and works just as quickly as the Easy Transfer Cable.
Transfer Cable 2008-04-05
Cable did not work would not load on my windows XP to transfer to Vista Your Technical support was no help. They just gave me a drive to load. which I already had. I had to transfer my file using a zip drive.
do not waste your Money I did.
