Where's the parallel port?

[cdlenterprises]

So, I just got my new Dell Dimension today. Everything's going great until I go to plug my hasp in and find that while it has plenty of USB ports, it DOESN"T HAVE A PARALLEL PORT! Is there anyway to make this HASP work with a USB port or am I stuck having to crack the case on my brand new Dell and install a parallel port?

Yeah, a lot of the new computers dont come with a parallel port...

You might want to ask your reseller how much it costs to switch to a USB hasp...

Matt there would be a small cost unless his Key is Hasp3.

cdlenterprises what version are you running by chance?

Matt, Not bad trying to get a good start for the new year and you?

[Matt Berube]

Pretty good, thanks...

I'm still trying to catch up with last year... LOL

Well Power user Matt, I am with you still playing the same way at work and home.

I'm still running version 9. I'm not sure what version the hasp is. I'll most likely end up installing a port into it. I'm sure it will come in handy....

[cadcam]

Well in that case go to www.simswap.com and download Haspinfo it will test the hasp to see if you can swap it for free to a Hasp4 if it is a hasp3 and they will send you a USB key.
As for neededing a Parriall port I don't see it unless your printer is.

Jay,

Would you happen to know why I am now a power user ?

Is this some special privilege being extended to me or what...

I was actually wondering how Toby got to be the Evil Machinist recently...

Would you happen to know why I am now a power user ?) Actully I do know.
I made you it.

[Matt Berube]

Well thank you then !

[cadcam]

But do you like it?

[Matt Berube]

Sure, it's better than apprentice, right ?

Maybe you could change it to just Power User ?

[cadcam]

Let me think about it.

Too many Years in a Machine Shop I guess LOL. If you donate to this site they give you special privleges. For instance a Title that you can edit (Evil Machinist) more space for PM's and uploading abilites.

BTW it has been Evil Machinist for quite some time, like since July of '06

Yeah, I made my post a bit confusing...

I meant that I had been wondering about it recently not that it had been changed recently...
