15 years ago --- Quote Start --- Thanks! That is the solution working to me. I also use the PCI parallel port card based on Mos chipset. The only difference is that the service name is "PciPPorts", which I found in *.inf coming with the card driver CD. Cheers --- Quote End --- I'm glad you managed to sort it out. However, not everybody's PCI card works with 'Nmpar'. Depending on which manufacture of the PCI card uses, in my instance it was 'oxpar'. I found this out by searching the readme files on the installation disc which pointed to 'oxpar'. Unless this is right then your get the message 'Kernal mode driver' popping up. Also, LPT1 must alway be assigned the port. Earlier on in the discussion trail I got thrown off because every body was talkiing about changing 'Parport' to 'Nmpar' and I was getting really frustrated with this 'Kernal Mode driver' :mad: I've finally got my quartus to work perfect now..:D
