Does anyone know the best method to troubleshoot a lpt port. I suspect a hardware problem, no errors in device manager or event viewer. I thought there were some old DOS commands to check serial/parallel port connections. Thanks.

To test whether the ports on your computer are working, first 1. Type DEBUG (at a DOS prompt). 2. At the hyphen, type D40:00. You can determine if the port is active by checking this print out. the port address shows the port is active, 00 00 shows it is not recognised. The example below this shows LPT1 (78 03) active. LPT1 0040:0000 F8 03 F8 02 00 00 00 00- 78 03 00 00 00 00 1F 05 0040:0010 61 C4 B0 7C 02 00 01 60- 00 00 2A 00 2A 00 34 05 -- **************************************************** * ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US * ****************************************************

4.Graphic equivilant to cmd line "route" cmd?
Is there a GUI version of the "route" command? You know, "route print", "route add", etc? It would seem to be a much easier way to manage the routing table. I can not always even get the cmd line version to recognize which route I want to delete at times . . . -Richard M. Hartman
