Wilfredo,

Well...I'm afraid it's time for you to upgrade your scope.

To go parallel to USB you must have the Pico USB converter. Unfortunately, those have been extinct for some time now. You might be able to find a used one but it would never work with a 64 bit PC because there are no 64 bit drivers and never will be.

My advice is to thank your 212 for many years of dependable service and put it out to pasture. Then take the giant leap to a 4423 four channel powerhouse. It's literally thousands of times more powerful than your 212.

I still have an adapter but am not willing to part with it a the moment. I still use my 212 once and a while.

It probably would be easier to find a used computer desk top or note book with a parllalel port. Both should be able to found pretty easy.

A step up to one of the newer scopes would not be a bad idea either the USB powered ones are lot more convenient as well as much more powerful.

I know this has been done successfully but not sure what brand card was used.
