BIOS SETTING
The GV-PT2 Driver & Capture Utility Software is designed to use a two-way communications interface as a prerequisite in the environment of Windows®. It runs when the parallel-port mode is set to EPP or Bi-Directional (represented as PS/2 Exchange mode or Extension mode in some PCs). On some PCs, it may not run properly even though the Parallel Port mode is set to EPP. The initial setting of some PCs may not be EPP or Bi-Directional. In this case, set the mode to EPP or Bi-Directional using the PC’s set-up utility. Refer to your computer’s user manual for details.
Some PCs capable of two-way communications may not provide any setup indication for EPP or Bi-Directional. In this case, consult the manufacturer of your computer.
