I'm attempting to connect an older Thomas to a computer using a USB to parallel converter since the new computer does not have a parallel port. However, it did not work. One thing, Duxbury setting only allow for a serial or parallel connection. Does anyone have ideas as to what Duxbury settings I need to look at? With this cable, does Duxbury automatically see the USb connection as a parallel connection? I guess I could set up a serial connection, but I try to avoid setting up serial connections whenever possible. I never check; I assume the computer has a serial port.Rick Boggess
