Is it possible to transfer files from one pc to a new one using a Dell Easy Transfer cables but with only one monitor? The monitor on my old computer is quite new so I did not purchase a new one when I bought my new Inspiron computer from Dell.

Yes, but monitor needs to be hooked up to new computer - where you are transferring all your data to so you can see prompts, etc.

there is no tower, hence all in one. The computer is enclosed within the monitor...no cluster of cords to mess with. This is a better pc with intel Pentium processor. Windows 8 offers a free upgrade to windows 8.1. Upgrade to windows 8.1..............You will be very happy with this.

I have not used my cable, but information on the Easy Transfer Cable for Windows 7 package clearly states that "The Belkin Easy Transfer Cable is the quickest way to migrate files, music, photos, user accounts - and more - from your Windows XP or Windows Vista PC to your new Windows 7 PC".

The short answer is yes. I suppose one could fool around with transferring monitors from "old computer" to "new computer", but that might incur more problems than cures. Suggested alternative would be to "Buy" a cheapo at your nearest big box store, and return it after you are done. Ethics aside, be sure to watch those return stocking policies however!!!

If you have an adapter that you can hook up your drive to. You don't need it connected to a monitor but a USB connection is required. I transferred old files from my PC to my laptop with no monitor connected to my PC.. The monitor on my laptop showed the graphs and status of transfer just fine. The software that comes with the cable is excellent.

Can I hook up 2 additional monitors to this machine. I have 2 hooked to my Dell laptop and I love it!!! Any info would help....Thanks....Steve

If you pull up a document, you will see the same document on two monitors. You will not be able to move documents between monitors. That is what I wanted to do. This product will not let you do what you want to do. I thought, perhaps, I just needed to download a driver. So, I went to their website. And, their website did not work.

In order to convert from a dual monitor to a single monitor you would have to get a single monitor conversion kit. I have not seen these kits available on Amazon but they are available on Ergotron's website for around $30.00.

Buy an inexpensive pass-through cable that goes from the ethernet (network) on your old PC to the ethernet connection on your new PC. Tripp Lite N201-003-YW Cat6 Gigabit Yellow Snagless Molded Patch Cable RJ45M/M - 3 feet is less than $10. In Windows Help look for Peer-to-Peer network connection for directions to get them talking to each other. This is the fastest way to transfer your files. I just did this last week and it was delightfully easy,

I did not try it for that purpose as I was more interested in cloning a big drive on my PC. I believe this would be an excellent drive for backing up your Dell files. I had connected it to a Dell Latitude 630 and that laptop recognized it immediately. Richard Chay

it worked fine for me, my surprise was, you need a 2nd monitor, to do the transfer!

I don't remember having to do anything special when I first got my monitor, but it has been quite some time so I am not sure. Did you recive a set up disk with the monitor?. Again I'm not sure if I did or not. If not, I would go to the Dell website and click on support, and it will guide you to there downloads. I would try doing that, however, I am thinking that you probably do have a defective monitor. I would try the download first though. Kind of vague, but I hope it helps.

1) You can try another DVI cable to your monitor from the PC. Or if your new monitor has HDMI slot, you can try using a HDMI cable instead.2) You can try the card on another PC to see if the card works. (If it doesnt, possibly card faulty, even though fan is running or you need to check the motherboard settings to enable the PCIE settings for graphics.) 3) Also try the new monitor with the old graphic card to see if the monitor itself has any issues. You may never know you might get a "dud" on your new monitor.

With this cable, you can do your transfer from either machine: you only need to see the file list from one of them to do a transfer. So as long as one of the machines has a display, this cable will allow you to copy files from either machine to the other.

Not sure what you are asking. Once the two PCs are connected it is like copying from one folder to another. You can copy as much and for as long as you want.You can change to different folders on each PC for additional copying.

Possibly, but I'm not sure. I only have connected to single monitor.Check with Dell support forums.

This cable is designed to connect one computer to one monitor. You'll need a special Y cable or a splitter to do what you want to do.
