Dear Bob,
It´s a well known problem as you can see from other replies, however you
might get it to work using a driver called PortTalk i have used this driver
previously to gain access to the I/O.
The driver can be found at:
http://www.beyondlogic.org/porttalk/porttalk.htm
Look for the explanation of allowio program which grants specified port
addresses access.
Hope it might help you ;o)
