NOTES ON PCI PARALLEL CARD .INF FILES

Lava does not provide device drivers for the PCI Parallel cards. It
uses the file lptenum.vxd to enumerate the ports and the file lpt.vxd
for the port functionality. These files are preinstalled by Windows and
are also used by the motherboard parallel ports on your system.

Lava cannot update these files as they are written by Microsoft and can
only be updated by them. What Lava does provide is an .inf file
(parallel.inf or lavaosp.inf) that is a setup information file. This
file contains the setup information for our card, specifically the
Device ID and Vendor ID and that the card is an EPP parallel
port.

When New Hardware is found at boot-up it searches for an
.inf file that has the same Vendor ID and Device ID that it read
from an EPROM on our card. There is nothing to update in this file.

If you wish updates to the lpt.vxd and lptenum.vxd files, try searching
the Microsoft web site for updates.
