Anyone figure out how to make the parallel port work on an ASUS K8V? Mine ssys "unsupported parallel port" in the device manager. |

I couldn't get mine to work on the MSI Neo. It appears that XP64 didn't
include drivers. I had to reinstall my printer as a USB connected device and then buy a longer cable. Then I had to reinstall in Win2000 Pro since the printer (HP 930c) won't let you keep both parallel and USB connected. "XS11E" wrote in message ...

I'll be going back to Windows 2000 soon, XP-64 bit is a LOOOOOOOONNNNNGGG way from ready now, I'll probably keep trying it from time to time, I have two harddrives in removable bays so it's easy to swap. I'm running XP 32bit on my other HD, that's the system that works but I'm pretty convinced that Windows 2000 is better for my purposes and, as soon as I get time, I'll be formatting and installing Win2k again. |
