I have an old Olivetti ECHOS 1200 running Windows-98. This laptop runs certain old programs that will not run on XP, so I need to use this and save files to a modern drive. The laptop only has a CDRom and an unreliable floppy drive. The ports available are Com-1 serial and a parallel printer port. There is a PCMCIA slot on the side also. Can I get an adapter to use the PCMCIA slot or serial port to save files to an external drive or storage unit that will enable me to transfer these files to a modern PC running XP? What would be the best option, maybe PCMCIA -to- USB ?
