The Windows NT variant of the package relies on the addition of a 3rd party shareware device driver in order to access the parallel port hardware. This device driver is available as shareware from http://www.entechtaiwan.com/tools.htm and is called TVICHW32. Once you have downloaded the software, unzip the following components:

  DRIVERS\VICPRT00.VXD      --> \WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VICPRT00.VXD (for Windows 95)
  DRIVERS\VICPRT00.SYS      --> \WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VICPRT00.SYS (for Windows NT)
  BASE_DIR\DLL\TVICPORT.DLL --> \PC_SHARE\TVICPORT.DLL (your PCShare directory)
Once you have a working version of PCShare, you must purchase the registered version of this software from the above website.

The Windows NT version can also run under Windows 95 by using the VXD described above.
