hello,

can it be possible to connect a ByteBlaster MV Cable through a parallel-serial/usb adapter to a serial/usb port of the computer?

i have this cable, but i don't want to use it on the parallel port of the computer, the main idea is to use it on a laptop, and laptops usually don't have parallel ports.

that's why i'm wondering if the adapter might be a solution to connect the ByteBlaster MV Cable to a serial/usb port

Does anyone have a sugeston or an idea?

Thank you very much
