Problem showing all characters [HD44780 Character LCD]

Post by SpawNerGR »

Hi all, i'm using LCD Smartie for a HD44780 Character LCD,
but it's shows only 2*8 characters and not 2*20 as it should be.

Any suggestions?

Driver is HD44780.dll
LPT1 are the parameters i use
2*20 the selection of my screen.

Tried to play with other settings too, but with no results.
