As for the CD, have a look on the companies web site, maybe you can download an installer from there

 

If you can't download it from the webpage...there is usually a number you can call...like customer service.

 

a real simple way to move files, is a crossover cable. it looks just like an ethernet cable, but some of the wires inside are "crossed over" so your two computer will think they are on a network together.

 

That's cool....never heard of it before.
