USB transfer cable problem -

Having a huge problem trying to get this USB data transfer cable to work.
I have 2 PCs connected to a HUB which is then connected to an ADSL modem (to get online).
One of the PCs (lets call it pcWhite) has a DVD burner. So I would like to connect both PCs together for file transfer (pcWhite and pcSilver) and then be able to burn some DVD stuff.
The problem is, when trying to use the "SuperLink" program I got with the USB cable, I try to "Open Remote" and I get this error "Device Not Loaded". I have tried all I can, but can't figure out how to load the device, who knows if it's even possible.
The USB cable has installed itself as a network connection "USB Virtual Network Adapter".
I tried using the windaz home office networking wizard. All seems to go fine, but when trying to connect to view other computers on the workgroup, there are no other PCs listed there (Yes, the workgroup is the same name on both PCs). wallbash:
pcSilver's network config looks like this

pcWhite's like this

The 1394 Connection is for the TV Card in that computer. I tried bridging it with the USB thing but then later realised it was for the TV Card, but had already taken a screenie and i'm too lazy to upload another..
Am I doing something wrong? Have I not done something?
I have tried for days, but to no avail.
Any help is very much appreciated.
The USB cable is a generic brand (Pro Link USB 2.0, Networking / Data Link 480mbps)
PC Specs:
pcSilver
Asus A7V8X mobo
AMD XP 2000 CPU (1.67ghz)
512mb RAM
SP1
USB 2.0
pcWhite
K7S5A mobo
AMD Duron 1ghz
512mb RAM
SP1
USB 2.0 (I think, any way to check?)
Stay out of my foxhole, pal!
