Computer spec : Dell Poweredge 2600 bi xeon 2.80Ghz FSB 533
1 g ram ECC windows server 2003 SP2 only windows installed and
LCD Smartie 5.4, display ODT (HD44780 compatible) parallel port
no other problem.
I will do tests with LCDSmartie Tricolor.

Hello


Here are the results of my test
LCDSmartie 5.4 freeze after 5 mns
LCDSmartie 5.41 freeze after 5 mns
LCDSmartie 5.5 Freeze after 5 mns
but with LCDSmartie 5.3 NO PROBLEM :P
the problem comes from the HD44780.dll, because with the 5.3 the
parallel port use the DriverLINX.
and more in the bios Dell Poweredge it is impossible to choose
EPP/ECC parallel port, just AT or PS2.

Thanks

Thierry
