Port Device Missing from Device Manager

message from =?Utf-8?B?SWFu?= on 8 Jun 2004
Hi!

The Parallel port driver service failed to start due to the following error:
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.

Please advice.

Many thanks
