Hi ecm,

I finally got it working, thanks for the advice. When I went into the device manager window, my pci parallel card was on LPT3 and I changed that to LPT1. Then the byteblaster showed up in the hardware list, but it said something about a missing kernel, so then I added the byteblaster driver again and also a .dll file that it needed and then opened up quartus again and finally I could add it and use it to program the device.

Elliot
