Hello Viesturs,
somwehow this motherboard and Pport issue seems to become a question of
principle, not so much of getting a particular machine up and running.

I think you just have to ignore this, the D510 just never admits that
it is in EPP mode, but the EMC2 driver has been modified to carry on
regardless.
