QUESTION

After we upgraded to Windows NT/2000/XP our International version of Keil Software package could no longer find the protection key or dongle. What should I do?

ANSWER

For running dongle protected software on Windows NT/2000/XP you must install the Sentinel Dongle Driver for the security device. You may verify installation with the Dongle Testing Application.

On some PC's you may need to change the BIOS settings for the Parallel Port. You must ensure that the Parallel Port is set to Normal (SPP on some PC's). Other modes like Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) do not always work.
