The preinstalled Microsoft® Windows® XP operating system enables you to use
a compatible i.LINK®
*
cable (not supplied) to connect your VAIO notebook to
another compatible computer. 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.
* i.LINK is a trademark of Sony used to designate that a product contains an IEEE 1394 con-
nection. The i.LINK connection may vary, depending on the software applications, operating
system, and compatible i.LINK devices. All products with an i.LINK connector may not
communicate with each other. Refer to the documentation that came with your compatible
i.LINK device for information on operating conditions and proper connection. Before con-
necting compatible i.LINK PC peripherals to your system, such as a CD-RW or hard disk
drive, confirm their operating system compatibility and required operating conditions.
Connecting with an i.LINK Cable
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
To connect VAIO computers that do not have the latest Windows® operating system,
Smart Connect software may be necessary. Consult the Sony Web site for support
options (http://www.sony.com/pcsupport).
