Thank you! I was indeed trying to use the 64bit DLL.. I mistakenly thought you were supposed to use the version of the operating system, not the program.
I have absolutely zero experience with windows programs. I am able to run my program now, but still not working exactly as I want it to work.. but I think I might need to set my port to the right mode.. so I'll see if that works. -----Original Message----- From: fpc-pascal-boun...@lists.freepascal.org [mailto:fpc-pascal-boun...@lists.freepascal.org] On Behalf Of Marc Santhoff Sent: Friday, July 22, 2016 10:56 AM To: fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org Subject: Re: [fpc-pascal] Parallel Port Access with Free Pascal - windows > > When I try to run it, I get a windows message The application was > unable to > > start correctly (0xc000007b). click ok to close the application. > > You could search Microsofts web site to decode this error.

The original site tells about similar error: http://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/inpout32/ Look at the update history...
