Hey Sam, nice to hear from you - EPP is set in bios, double checked that one. I already have the Pluto plugged directly into the Parallel port. I tried adding the "epp_wide=0" argument to the init string but no luck. It looks like the I/O chipset is Intel. I am starting to look around for another salvageable computer somewhere. Maybe out in the barn...
