Printer port card issue


Just installed a PCI printer port card (Skymaster) as I needed an extra
port.
Fitted and installed ok and shows up as LPT 1 & LPT 2 in device manager in
addition to the original LPT1.
That parts ok.

When I go to install a printer or change the current installed printer only
the original LPT 1 shows on the list. No sign of 2 or 3.

Any fix for this?

Windows XP pro

Have you checked with the tech support for the card vendor?

Your correct Ron. My mistake. Sorry.

Should have been :

Just installed a PCI printer port card (Skymaster) as I needed an extra
port.
Fitted and installed ok and shows up as LPT 2 & LPT 3 in device manager in
addition to the original LPT 1.
That parts ok.

When I go to install a printer or change the current installed printer only
the original LPT 1 shows on the list. No sign of LTP 2 or LPT 3.

Any fix for this?

Windows XP Pro


Further information since then :

This computer duel boots either XP Pro or 98SE. The card I've discovered
works
ok in 98SE but not in XP.

Tried downloading the latest driver (Sunix). No different in XP Pro but
still ok in 98SE
