PC Doctor Blue parallel port
Hi, may I ask, if the USB device is damaged, are we able to run up the PC-Doctor in DOS mode using Parallel to USB port connector with the supplied Blue 25pins parallel port loop-back adapter?   ???

-I am using PC Doctor Service Center 7.5
-My testing is only required to be in DOS mode on machines bootup without going into OS.

stormancer ,

Yes you can, you just need to make sure the parallel port is set up in BIOS in ECP mode.

stormancer,

I apologize, I misread your post.

USB to Parallel port adapters will not work, I know I've tried.  These devices seem to depend upon Windows to function.
