Parallel Port Lock Troubleshooting
From XMS Wiki - http://wikis.aquaveo.com/xms/
Troubleshooting
1. Have you installed the hardware lock drivers?
Use add/remove programs to remove any Sentinel drivers that are currently installed on your machine, install the updated drivers*, and reboot your machine.
- when you are installing the new drivers, the parallel port lock should NOT be attached to your machine. Attach the lock after you shut down your machine and preferably before starting it up again.
Install them from the CD or download them here.
Go on to number 2.
2. Is the lock firmly attached to the parallel port of the appropriate computer?
If yes, go on to number 3.
If no, attach the lock.
3. Look for a password file, usually in the same directory as the executable, and named *mspass.txt. (gmspass.txt for GMS users, smspass.txt for SMS users, and wmspass.txt for WMS users)
You can also find this file by searching for pass.txt with your Windows XP utility.
If you find this file, delete it or rename it.
If you do not find this file, go on to number 4.
