I have built a nice new computer, it doesn’t have an onboard Paralell port so I installed a PCI Paralell card and when the machine that connects to it is plugged in, the computer will not start at all. If I remove the plug from the Paralell card, the computer will start normally. I can plug the machine back into the Paralell card after the computer starts and it all works fine. I can reboot the computer and it will be fine, but if I shut it down, it will not start as long as there is something plugged into the Paralell card.
the computer specs are …
Intel i7-860
Asus P7P5D-E Deluxe
3gb DDR 3 1333 RipJaws
1TB Seagate SATA
Gainward Gt 240 1gb PCIe
DVD-RW
1200w A-Power Tri Fan PSU
Added PCI Paralell card.
All housed in a nice Thermaltake V3 Black Case
All (Correct) manufacturer drivers are installed with no conflict.
Any ideas?
