OK, board installed OK and checked with a printer. Now running the programmer software, is unable to see the programmer. I set LPT to LPT1 for the new parallel port, but SW does not find it. Tried also to give direct address, which now is in the range of CCD0 to CCFF, rather high relative to the on-board LPT port....
Oh, what a nightmare..

mmm... usually when you install the PG4Uxx software it also install a driver. Try removing the software and re-install the latest version. the you should be prompted to reboot your system.
i agree.. what a pain.
Can you disable the on-board LPT port in your BIOS?

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

Yes I did it. First thing. So there is no conflict between the two ports. I am concerned about the address of the new port. It is too high. May be that's why PG4U does not see the port...Originally Posted by mister_e
I 'll try to reinstall the sw and see what happens...
Thanks Steve.

if the driver don't allow you to move it to the usual LPTx address or use dedicated LPT name (in Port Settings), i don't know what could happen.

It is the SUNIX PCI Express card with 2 RS232 ports and 1 Parallel port. I suppose it is not possible to change the allocation. Obviously from BIOS it is not seen as it is add-on card.
Yikes...

in my current PC, i added a Serial card (only 1 COM port) and in the control Panel>> system>>>Hardware >>>> Device manager >>>>> PORTs(COM & LPT) >>>>>>> card name PCI Serial PORT... >>>>>>>>>>>>proprieties >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> PORT SETTINGS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> advanced
i can change the default COM name. But i don't know for your card

Yes I did change the name from LPT3 (default) to LPT1 as it is requested by PG4Uxx. But it seems this is not enough. I just finished installation of the new 2.35 version and restarted the PC but no joy...
It is 8 past midnight and I am very angry with it...
I 'll leave it for tomorrow...
Thanks for being near, although too far...
Goodnight (or day to you!)
