Situation:
Client uses a third party driver to open up IO ports to direct manipulation.
Works OK on XP Pro.
Just need to copy .sys and .dll files to system32 directory.
Can then directly use inp and outp in code for particular port/s.

Same thing doesn't work with XPe.

Port read/writes just send /return FF.
Any ideas on this welcome.

Its a bit like porttalk as in:

I created a component for this a few years ago. Did you include the registry
keys?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\PortTalk]
"Type"=dword:00000001
"ErrorControl"=dword:00000001
"Start"=dword:00000002
"DisplayName"="PortTalk"
