How to Connect Two Computers With a USB Cable

* To connect two computers with a USB cable, you will need to purchase or borrow a special bridging USB cable (it can also be called a USB data transfer cable or USB networking cable). The right cable has an electronic circuit at the center and male USB connectors on both sides.

* These cables normally come with an installation CD or DVD containing software. Install the program on both computers.

* Insert the USB cable in both computers and launch the transfer software that you installed previously (Start > All Programs > All Apps > your program).
