Summary: Parallel link doesn't work
Initial Comment:
OS: Vista Business 32-bit.
TiLP2 1.07b
I suspect that the problem relates to my parallel port being at address 0xCCD8 rather than the legacy address 0x378. It's a roughly 50:50 split with other apps as to which will detect the address correctly and which will just assume it's at 0x378, though. The cable works on a PC with a parallel port at 0x378.
TiLP simply times out if I try and send or receive any data and the parallel port status doesn't change.
TiLP 1 let you enter an address manually in the config file, but it chopped off the last digit (turning 0xCCD8 into 0xCCD).
I wrote a test program that reads/writes serial data via COM2 and sends it out of my parallel port using the TI link protocol; if I set up TiLP to use the greylink on COM1 and connect COM1 and COM2 with a null modem cable I can take screenshots of my calc from TiLP but this Heath-Robinson set-up is too unreliable to send whole files. :)

I built for you a special ticables2 library. Set your // link cable to
port #4 and 0xCCD8 will be used.
Please tell me whether it works...
Romain.
File Added: libticables2-1.dll
