You should really try the LPT.EXE program available (as a floppy disk image EXPE.BIN) at http://www.pallier.org/ressources/timelpt/timelpt.html As it displays the values of all the bits of the parallel port, and show when they change, it will help determine if the problem is with the parallel port or with the software (windows or VE).
