[Dx4win] LPT Problem

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

You can try to assign the new port to be LPT2:

* Right click on My Computer then select Properties.

* Click on the Hardware tab then the Device Manager button.

* Expand Ports (COM & LPT) and find your LPT3 device.

* Right click on the device then select Properties.

* Click on the Port Settings tab. At the bottom should be an LPT Port 
Number box.

* Change it to LPT2, then click on OK.  Close all the dialogue boxes.

You may need to reboot at this point.
