Yes you should be able to. Windows will recognise the connection and all you will have to do is enable sharing on the drives or folders you want to transfer files from.

That sounds great but assumes that i know what I'm doing, the pc does recognise the device which I took as a positive thing but from there on I'm stuck.
Not sure if relevant but the firewire is via an expresscard (dell) which mentions a pci to pci bridge when disconnecting.
Any ideas where the dvd recorder would be listed on my laptop once it is identified? Running Windows XP
Thanks for any help :beer:0
