Search the help file for CommSlot= ... that will fix your 
issue with access to enough rig control and CW/PTT ports.

Windows NT and descendents (Windows 2000, XP, Vista) do not 
permit direct access to the LPT port.  Again, read the help 
files and look for information on DirectIO and/or UserPort. 
There is also information about those drivers on the WriteLog 
web site (www.writelog.com).  

The help files are your friend.
