 Parallel Port LPT1 Configurations

I and some associates have a particular analog/digital converter which, with
its software, runs from the parallel port of a computer.  I have found that
it works fine on my older computer (which does not even have Windows) but it
does not work with my newer computers (W95/98).  For some it works on
computers which are running on older versions of Windows.  Question:  Do
there exist options in Windows for resetting the configuration or mode of
the parallel port (such as resetting it so that it is bi-directional)?  The
program requires such a mode.

Hi All,

answer at the NG I intended to post it:
