    OK, could you be a bit more explicit?

    What is your parallel port set to in bios? - What are the available settings?

    What devices have you tried?

    Does the port show up in device manager?

    Depending on the bios - usually under integrated peripherals.

    IRQ looks fine.
    what setup and choices u have under parallel port mode ?

    (arrow down on it and

    U should have :
    -disable
    -enale (auto)
    ECP
    EPP

    try enable (or auto, aka os dependent)

    keep us posted.
