Gigabyte rocks for continuing to offer this an an option with their boards.
ASRock too. I just very recently bought an AM2+ board from them with parallel port.

I'm still getting $FF. I also tried dumping Sonic 2, but to no avail. Is there a way I can scan my parallel ports to find out which one to use without manually trying all $FFF ports?
Open Device Manager and check the I/O port number in the Resources tab of the parallel port. It should be one of $378, $3F8, $478 or $4F8.

All right, so it was $378 all along. And I tried different BIOS settings, different USB ports, and different parallel driver settings all to no avail. So at this point I'm assuming that MD PRO programmers simply won't work properly with laptop docks. I'm going to try my older computer later.

Ok, it's been a long time, but I finally managed to test the MD PRO on my 2001 Dell Dimension 2400, whose BIOS has an EPP option and the port is set to $378. Unfortunately, when I tried it with uconn and SUSE, it didn't work — I just got that long stream of $FF bytes again. Is there any other option? An even older computer I might have? Some adapter? Thanks.
