All, 
 For XP, The lpt ports lines still remain as greyed out after installation and configuration of direct-io (version  4.2.241) ... I tried this on 2 different computers - the installs went real well for direct-io. Any work arounds???  I have everything ready to go - this is really annoying...

Happy New Year to All, I have a laptop running XP and I am trying to get the CW keying through the LPT port which I understand can be done by downloading a program called Direct-IO. After downloading the program it seems that some routine or code must be written to allow WL to work with Direct-IO. Unfortunately this is about a light year ahead of my computer skills. Has anyone written a routine or code that they would be willing to share or can shed some light on this subject? 73 Ed N2ED
