I am using DX4WIN 6.02 on Windows XP, and am having trouble getting the =
parallel port drivers to work against any LPT port other than LPT1 (the =
port built into my Dell computer). I have a TopTenDevices antenna =
selector, and an ARS rotor control card - both of which use an LPT port =
for communication to DX4WIN. When I configure either of them to use =
LPT1, they work properly; when I configure either of them to use LPT3, =
DX4WIN reports a comm error trying to access the port.
My second LPT port, defined as LPT3 on a ByteRunner card, seems to =
install and configure properly under XP, but DX4WIN cannot "find" it. Is =
anyone else using a dual-LPT port configuration on XP? Is it working =
properly for you? Do I have to do anything weird to get this working?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
