XE1541 and Windows

I used to transfer between 1541 and PC several years ago but I had pure DOS mode back then and programs like Starcommander.
I downloaded Starcommander today and found that it started in a dos-window making me realize I dont have any DOS mode anymore. There is some winnt/2000/XP support in StarCommander but I could not get it to work in Vista (yes..V....ista, my only PC with a parallel port).

So.. what tool is best for transferring data between XE1541 and Windows V.....vvv....v.ista.

Else I will have to dig out my old Pentium200 I have stored somewhere :)

Quoting Frantic
I am afraid that I cannot see a single good reason to go for the X(A/E/M)-1541 cable solution in these days. What would in fact be one such reason? (I don't think there is any.)

Familiarity. Some people only wish to work with what they already know and there is nothing wrong with that. There is no reason to always use the newest and greatest to do a task. If that was true, none of us would be here with c64.
