I have a simple parallel I/O board that I have controlled with QBASIC using OUT 888,XXX and INP(889). I just recently purchased BlitzBASIC and a little searching yielded me portio.zip. I unzipped all the files and loaded parallel.bb and executed it. I kept getting a "DLPORTIO.SYS is not loaded" error message. After more searching I found and loaded DLPORTIO.SYS into Windows System32 directory. Same results as before..."DLPORTIO.SYS is not loaded". I have no recent experience with any programming languages other than QBASIC (and not a whole lot of that!). What I am looking for is a guided lesson to use BlitzBASIC and parallel.bb (and whatever else is needed) to do some simple OUT 888,XXX and INP(889):A=INP(889):PRINT A work with BlitzBASIC. Anybody want to help? Thanks in advance...

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/parallel port programming Make a file in the userlib folder in your bb folder called dlportio.decls in this file write: '.lib "dlportio.dll"' restart Blitz, now it should work :)
And welcome to the forum, by the way.
