#1 get_io

[Anonymous]

This seems (at least until tonight) like a dream come
true. I've been wanting to be able to find Parallel
port IO addresses programmatically for a long time. I
ported the Get_IO header over to Delphi (sorry, I'm not
a C programmer), and it seemed to work just great on
all the Windows 2000 machines I tried. But when I try
it on XP -- it fails every time!

I more or less cloned your test routine code into
Delphi. In XP, it returns failed on the call to
GetNumIODevices. I can't figure why. I tried all
sorts of device names, but it always returns false. (In
Win2000, it responds to almost anything I might expect
it to work with).

Have you had any reports of problems in XP?
Thanks,
