Win2000 I/O port driver?

Thread Starter

Does anyone know how I could read and write to a simple IO port address in a Win2000 system. I do not want to mess around with writing a "driver". I have seen universal port I/O drivers, but I cannot remember where. I do not need interrupts. A routine that emulates file IO would
be ideal. Something like IOPERM for Linux.

Any ideas...

For Windows 95/98 and Windows NT4, I used TVicPort, available at
http://www.entechtaiwan.com/tools.htm. It's a generic driver that I used to create a quick and dirty control to access some IO bits on a machine running NT4. I don't know if it runs on Windows 2000, however.

You will definitely need a driver, but you might have figured that out already.

Ok, that said I have once written a driver that was almost a general I/O-port driver, I might be able to find it and rewrite it to fit your needs. I am not familiar with IOPERM however.

Bill,

We have used "Tinyport" for this very successfully. It can be licensed from the
author,

Tinyport is now included in our Windows 2000 and NT based process control software, LABTECH CONTROL. So, it has been tested for this application extensively and on many PCs.

Regards,
