From your other mail, the line that tries to install the driver is :
loadrt hal_ppmc extradac=0x00 Since yours is a new USC board, it should support the extra DAC, so that isn't the problem. Maybe this motherboard uses a different parallel port address than the default 0x378. Anyway, you should run the diagnostic program from http://pico-systems.com/codes/univstepdiags.tgz Instructions are at http://pico-systems.com/codes/univstepdiags.html This program is a lot faster to use than trying to start EMC and then searching for info on why it failed. With any Pico Systems board, you need to use a parallel port cable that is designed for IEEE-1284 use, and they say "IEEE-1284 compliant" right on the cable jacket.
