|
|
Hello. I've had this device for almost 4 years now, and the computer I was using in the past would work with the super flasher software.
The computer I use now does have a parallel port, and I set to EEP in the bios, but I get that error now.
I have all the files that are required, as I read another topic with a similar problem, but I can't get mine working.
Please help! _________________ Oi |

What are the differences between your old and new computer? Are you sure you have the parallel port I/O drivers installed to use it as it is required to get some sort of drivers to use it on Windows 2000, XP, and up. |

Its still a single core with the onboard parallel port. No PCI card or anything.
I am running Windows 7 though _________________ Oi |

Well I'm not aware if Windows 7 is compatible. Perhaps someone else will know. The easiest way to work with parallel devices though is by using an older machine running Windows 98. I bought an old laptop with parallel port to run Win98 on to work with my parallel devices. Not the ideal solution but it works. All I can suggest is trying to get it to work like you would for Win XP, which probably means installing the correct Port I/O driver. But it may not be anything wrong you did as Win7 may just not work. |

Well at that point it would just be cheaper to just play snes games on the wii, which I like to do too.
I've been browsing older threads and other people get this error, but they found fixes for their specific issues _________________ Oi |

Are your sure it's supposed to be EEP mode? All the other adapters I've seen that use the parallel port use EPP mode. |
