Thanks all, It wasn’t anything other than a senior brain fart. I had the parallel cable plugged into the pc’s parallel port instead of the 5i25. After I checked out the cable from the outside of the box to the 7i76 and found nothing wrong, I woke up in the middle of the night and realized what I had done wrong. Duh!!!
