ByteBlaster fails on Windows 98

There is a new driver, the ByteBlaster II, which I found I needed for MaxPlus

10.2 on Windows 2000. I don't know whether Windows 98 is supported or not. It was a royal pain to find the driver, install it, and get it working. There's probably a FAQ somewhere to cover this information step-by-step but I don't know where it is.

I'm sure my home-made version of the Byte Blaster worked OK with Win98 SE. It works OK with WinME. Both with MaxPlus 10.2.

Isn't this an error message for the MPU programmer? Are you sure you are configured to use a ByteBlaster? (in the Options/Hardware Setup menu)

Dear friends,

Could your check and then post your BIOS LPT port settings for me ?

Thank you in advance, Yuri

I just dug out my home-made ByteBlaster clone and an old Flex10K10 board of mine and checked that they still worked with MaxPlus 10.2. Configuration with a simple test function worked OK. I'm using WinME with the port configured for EPP operation.

Further to the above, I'm actually using an ISA EPP parallel port card for the ByteBlaster. The motherboard parallel port is connected to my printer. I use the EPP port for other devices like Xilinx and ARM JTAG interfaces.
