i am using a dell labtop with windows xp. i downloaded the windows dosbox win32 installer. i downloaded the d-fend v2. i opened dosbox and mounted my haltech program. it opened but wont connect. i change the serial 1 to directserial realport:com9 and it tries to connect but a screen pops up on the haltech screen and it says that i need a later version software for haltech.


also in the dosbox status window.. it says the following when i open the e6k program.
warning: file creation failed: c:/games/e6k/e6kv634/LPT1

what does that mean and what is LPT1? isnt that a port? i dont have anything else plugged into the computer.

 

Ah man, I just posted a thread with the same problem. Didn't see this one first.

Can anyone help?
