Hello,
Some direct I/O support was removed with release 5.4:

Regards.
This seems DOS stuff to me; the driver i've had installed is a pure NT driver.

I tried to explain this in comment 6, but basically, the most likely explanation is that the driver didn't work in wine 7 either, but it failed in a less noisy way.
I understood what you've tried to explain, but i have no experience in windows, so i had no idea what to do. This was just a sudden idea, a blind shot. It was sheer luck, that it did hit. As for WINE 7, i've upgraded from WINE 4.15 or 4.16 to WINE 8, i've never used WINE 7. So, you say, this is not gonna work ever again, so i can just uninstall the driver? Why WINE team removed the driver level access to I/O ports?
