PE Design Dongle

pegepper
15 years ago

I just bought a laptop with Windows Vista. I had to download some some drivers so that my PE Design Software Ver 2, 3,5 and 6 would work with my new laptop. After installing it says I need to attach the dongle. New computers and laptops no longer come with the port to attach this type of dongle (original attached to printer ports). Does anyone knew if there is an adaptor or what I need to do to be able to use my software on my new laptop?
