DLLPortio.sys

[michael_li13]

I'm using Turing that I got from school, however, it is copy pasted, so I'm not sure if thats the problem. At home, when I try to use the parallelput function, it says something about "DLLPortio.sys". I installed dlportio_install but it still has the error. plz help

Same I had the problem to, I installed and restarted cpu but still same error. But I did an alternative I just modified my program so I was using the arrow keys and then when I went to school changed it to joystick. It doesn't take that long to convert it. But I don't know "offically" how to fix that that was just the alternative I used.

I'm not using arrow keys or joysticks, i need to output power to a 7-segment display, sry about that, can you help?

We would love to hear the rest of your beautiful memories but michael_li13 needs help for his DLPORTIO error. Michael I have no other option for you besides looking for something on the internet. I will check and see what I can find.

You need to check what mode your Parralel port is.

Quote:

Lastly, before accessing the parallel port, check that the parallel port is in normal mode and not in PS/2, EPP or ECP mode. You can determine which mode the parallel port is in using the Device Manager. In the list of devices in the Device Manager window, double click Ports (COM and LPT), and then the LPT port. This displays a property sheet about the parallel port. Take a look at what it says about it. If it is in a non-original mode (i.e. mentions PS/2, EPP or ECP mode), then you will probably need to adjust the systems BIOS settings.

(Under Windows 2000 the Device Manager can be displayed by selecting the System Control Panel from Settings in the Start menu. Select the Hardware tab and then click the Device Manager button.)

Changing the BIOS setting generally requires pressing certain keys when the system is starting up to display the BIOS settings and then modifying the settings. Once the BIOS settings are changed, TURN THE MACHINE OFF FOR 10 SECONDS. (For some reason, restarting the machine is not always sufficient to enact the port changes...)
