                       So i need to program some 27sf512 chips for my car, so I borrowed a friends Willem that he bought years ago for the same purpose but never used. 
  It's a dual-power but I have no clue which model (need to copy and paste this due to site hotlinking and uploading restrictions)

  I've searched through many topics and still can't get this thing working!
  I just assembled a Win XP SP2 box with a fresh install so I could have a parallel port. 
  I've tried using the 0.98D5, 0.97ja, 0.97g software and all gave the same Hardware Error: Check Power & Connection when I try to test hardware under the help menu. 
  My BIOS has options for SPP, EPP1.9+SPP, EPP1.9+ECP, ECP, EPP1.7+SPP, and EPP1.7+ECP
  In device manager, the LPT is set to "use any interrupt assigned to the port" and has legacy plug-and-play enabled.
 
 
  What combination of port settings and program versions should I be using, and is there anything else I can check that may be preventing the programmer from being recognized?
 
  Thanks
  all three lights come on when the parallel cable and ac adapter are plugged in. |

                       Your cable may have problem.
  The simplest way is to buy a GQ-4X. |

                      |  the cable is brand new as of yesterday, I'll bust out the multimeter and check it for continuity. |
