Hello, I'm running windows 7 on a laptop with a pcmcia parallel port card. I'm using the DOSBOX Megabuild. I can set up the .conf File so that I can print, but I need to be able to use the PARALLEL1=REALLPT. However, I think that requires PORTTALK and I can't get that to work. Also, reading this forum it seems that the SVN Daum Build might work, but I can't find a place to download it from.

Thanks.

Search for dosbox daum and the first hit is the right one...
Though without getting porttalk to work I doubt it will do better

Use the search. Next time don't write you can't get it to work when you can't even find it...

Ok, I should have said that I found something that I thought would work, but it didn't. Without going into too much detail, I was just hoping to find a location that has what I need instead of finding a bunch of versions where half of them are source code without any binaries. I need the place to download an installation package of portalk that will work with DOSBOX in a Win 7 environment. If you can't help me, then don't bother to reply. I don't have time for useless replys.

I don't have time for useless replies as well. If you can't be bothered to use a simple internet or forum search or write down simple facts then why should anyone bother to help you?
Because the next reply will only be flaming rage, I'm locking this topic for now.
