Why do I get a Unsupported Printer Port listed under hardware device
manager, after I installed Windows XP 64-Bit Edition on my computer? I cant
add certain printers, fax or PDF writers now.

Re-boot to the BIOS and check how the printer port is configured, it may be
set to EPP or ECP or some other setting that isn't supported fully ..

Next time check first that your pc is desinged for the OS you want to
play with.

Tried that, It was set to Bi-Directional so I set to Normal and it did not
change the situation at all. I am running a ASUS SK8V main board and AMD
FX-51 processor if this helps. Tried New VIAHyperionpro64-096P2 Chipset
driver, and have new soundmax driver. I still get a Unsupported Printer Port
listed under hardware device, & Analog Device AD1985 Game Port Conflict.
