- I have a very similar problem. I am trying to run Laplink 4.0 in a DOS
- window. When I try and run it it says that LPT1 is in use by another task.
- I tried disabling LPT1 in Laplink, but it still checks that port. I don't
- even have a printer hooked up! Though I used to but can't figure out how
- to disable it. If someone can tell us how to get LPT1 back, I think we'll
- both be happy.
-
- Has anyone been successful using Laplink under OS/2?
