I fond that my Lava LPT2 did not work under XP. In my case, I only needed one port, so I used LPT1 and moved my printer to LPT2... this won't work for you.
Did you try using "userport.sys" ... here's one location for it http://www.invtech.com.au/html/downloads.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Larry Gauthier" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <dx4win@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2003 15:00 Subject: [Dx4win] Using 2 LPT ports on Windows XP > I am using DX4WIN 6.02 on Windows XP, and am having trouble getting the parallel port drivers to work against any LPT port other than LPT1 (the port built into my Dell computer). I have a TopTenDevices antenna selector, and an ARS rotor control card - both of which use an LPT port for communication to DX4WIN. When I configure either of them to use LPT1, they work properly; when I configure either of them to use LPT3, DX4WIN reports a comm error trying to access the port. > > My second LPT port, defined as LPT3 on a ByteRunner card, seems to install and configure properly under XP, but DX4WIN cannot "find" it. Is anyone else using a dual-LPT port configuration on XP? Is it working properly for you? Do I have to do anything weird to get this working? > > Any suggestions would be appreciated. > > -larry > K8UT > > --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- > multipart/alternative > text/plain (text body -- kept) > text/html > The reason this message is shown is because the post was in HTML > or had an attachment.
