Win2000 Prof machine - In my registry
under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\PARALLEL
PORTS" I have 2 entries that read -
\device\parallel0 REG_SZ \dosdevices\lpt1
\device\parallel0.4 REG_SZ \dosdevices\lpt1.4

I don't understand the second entry - should it be there?
If so, please explain. If not how do I get rid of it?
Thanks in advance
 
Unless you have some compelling reason it's best to leave the registry
intact.
