What exactly is it? Let’s Google for “io.dll”. So I kept seeing this io.dll and iodllwrapper stuff. The first comment on the digg posting was by a user named rabitguy, who said he had a Willem board working on Windows 7 64-bit with tvicport and iodllwrapper.
#Winclone 5 version install#
The post is by the admin of the site, and he mentions to install software called TVicPort and then a modified io.dll file. The linked page is a forum posting at a forum called. The second result was a digg posting titled Willem Eprom for Vista and 64bit XP (digg post is no longer available link removed). Google lesson #1: sometimes when you’re looking for info about Windows 7 64-bit, you can find very useful stuff when you search for Vista 64-bit (or XP 64-bit) instead. I tried running the software that came with the board, but it just gives me errors and actually won’t let me exit without forcing it to quit from the task manager. Also let’s remember that add-on parallel ports do not get mapped to the standard I/O addresses for parallel ports (0x378 and 0x278), but instead some other random address (mine is at 0x3000). It’s difficult enough to get low-level legacy stuff working in Windows 7, but when you’re using the 64-bit edition, a lot of older stuff breaks even more.
I remembered that I had my programmer and decided I totally needed to get it working in Windows 7. (Note: Newegg’s product specs lie about this card - the parallel port does not support EPP or ECP mode, according to a sticker on the box, even though Newegg says it does).
#Winclone 5 version serial#
I recently bought a sweet PCI Express 1x card with four serial ports and a parallel port from Newegg. It does have a variety of types of PCI Express slots, though. It has no PS/2 ports, no parallel port, no serial ports, and no standard IDE ports. The DX58SO literally has no legacy peripherals, other than a single PCI slot.
#Winclone 5 version Pc#
I have a homebuilt PC with an Intel DX58SO motherboard and a Core i7 CPU, running Windows 7 Ultimate edition, 64-bit. Let’s fast forward to over a year later (a.k.a. The programmer worked great, and I was able to fix a computer’s BIOS chip that I had messed up while trying to hack its BIOS.
I had to use a really old HP Pavilion with a Celeron running Windows 98 to do anything with it. As everybody should know at this point, the parallel port is on the way out. All communication goes through the parallel port. It has a USB port, but it’s only for supplying power. Apparently it can even program some AVR microcontrollers. It’s basically a cool little board with various sockets for plugging in EPROM/EEPROM/Flash/etc chips for reading/erasing/writing. Last year I bought a Willem EPROM programmer board from Sivava. If you’re looking for my patched io.dll for Willem programmer compatibility, see below. Note: I have written a post containing updated compatibility information you may want to read here. The remainder of this post below is still very important, but I’d like to make sure everyone has the most up-to-date information about compatibility between the different DLLs and parallel port cards out there.
