No Dongle in XP

[MobyProject]

I'm sure many will say search but its no help as replies were PM

They will say use UserPort but that only works with XP Pro and mine is XP home edition.

Nothing I do make the port work so I can't use bWinlock, Terminator, Nelix 3

Please help

Hi Crux2002,

I would have to contact three suppliers as none of these dongles will work..bWinlock, Terminator, Nelix3, DCT4 Calc (now not used)

I have tested the port and its ok

What now

What display drivers do you use??

If you have an ATI video card this will fu*k up any flashing/unlocking software!

The way I do it is to disable the video card in hardware device manager then restart the PC, the video card will no longer be active and you should be able to use your dongle!
When you've finished what your doing just enable the video card again and restart!

the device manager is in: control pannel> system> hardware> device manager

Hope this helps!

I tried different settings for the port including bi-directional and have taken it off AUTO and have nominated LPT1 037F

Still can't see any Dongle

The LTP port should be set to ecp/epp

What software are you using?
It may have been written for 98/2K rather than XP!

[sergo_zmeia]

Yep ..Mr. danwood76 is right....which OS is installed on the lappy..

I am trying to use both bWinlock and Nelix3 both are said to be XP compatable and is set to ECP on LPT1

Check the resources that the ltp port calls and enter them into userport and try to use ltp2 and 3 if they are located in the software!
I remember having to use ltp2 in knok due to the resource settings!
