I went to the local computer store, and purchased a fairly generic PCI parallel port. It works very fine with my SDR-1000. The driver says NetMos PCI enhanced ECP parallel port. I think that most aftermarket parallel port cards would likely be OK, if they are enhanced parallel ports..
The only wierdness is that the parallel port is not the common 378, 3A8, or other addresses. It is CC78. In PowerSDR, you must type the port number into the box, there is not a drop-down with that address. After that, it worked fine. For a laptop, I have used the Quatech SPP-100G PCMCIA enhanced parallel port with my Toshiba Satellite. It also works good, but also has the high port address, not 378, 3A8, or other common address.

My new PC does not have a parallel port and from my understanding the only way to run the SDR-1000 under vista is to the an actual parallel port.
