Problem Title:
XKEY 5.2 under Windows 3.11 does not see the key, but works fine under DOS.
Problem Description:
There is only the Xilinx key on the parallel port.
XKEY 5.2 under DOS reads the key on the parallel port but XKEY under
Windows does not.
Solution 1:
There is a conflict with a windows driver on lpt1/lpt2.
This problem has been reported when the HP laserjet 5L driver is installed on the same port than the
Xilinx key.
The workaround is to disable this driver.
Solution 2:
It has been reported that loading in the driver for 5M fixes the problem
Solution 3:
A solution to getting the HP6P printer to work with the xilinx key is installing the driver in EPP (
Enhanced Parallel Port) Mode .
