FAQ-11919 http://e-www.motorola.com/webapp/sps/utils/SingleFaq.jsp?FAQ-11919.xml Question: I am running Windows 2000, working with an '85x part. I installed everything exactly according to the directions. I cannot communicate with the EVM on the Parallel Port. I get this fatal error message: NT Driver not found: MAC_MOT.SYS ..and then other error messages saying I cannot communicate to the EVM. I can see that the MAC_MOT.SYS file is installed where it should be. What can I do? Answer: In some situations, the installation process does not update the system registry for Windows 2000. Without this registry being updated, even if the file is in the correct location, it will not be seen by Windows 2000. To remedy this, first make sure you have administrator privileges, or contact your system administrator for help. Then follow The Parallel Port "ADS Command Converter" Driver Installation for Windows 2000.
