Is anyone having trouble getting 2K to see LPT1 ?? Have a dual boot on a partitioned drive with ME and 2K installed. I have set this system up twice attempting to get 2K to see LPT1 for my printer. I have the proper 2K driver and printer properties show the printer configured to print to LPT1 with no problems. The problem is in the Device Manager where it does not see the port. Device Manager does not see the printer at all either, not even an unknown device. The same setup in ME gives me no problem. When attempting to print, I get an error message that just says there is a problem printing to LPT1 (in 2K). If I need to delete the port and set it back up, how would I do that? Thanks.

Use the "Add & Remove Hardware" to install the LPT1 port.
