After upgrading Win me to xp home edition. My printer hp
T45 would not operate. I got the compatible xp drivers..
Removed all old drivers and software. Removed and install
the paralell port. Set Bios to 378. Loaded new drivers
but still no recognization of the port. (I had followed
all inst for reloading drivers and connecting printer and
turning it on) Still no response that the parallel LPT1
port was active...Then on my own I selected LPT2 as my
port WOW this worked perfect. All was well until I
rebooted ...the printer was dead again. Reselected the
LPT (a different Port) and all would load and be
ok..Everytime the computer is rebooted the parallel port
is out... Please is the an answer for this.
Thanking anyone in advance if there is a solution..
