              Perplexed by your sistuation. I own the same beast. Now the LED
should be green in High speed mode. RED in lo speed [clock rate] mode. If it
came up with a setup error, this tends ti indicate your battery has croaked and
is not retaining your setup correctly. This will also affect your clock speed
and port settings. If this is OK first thing to check is your power supply.
Make sure all voltages are there. + & - 12V and + & -5V. What I dont understand
is the reluctance of the secondary port to function. Would have to be a strange
problem for the mother board to cause it. I gather it doesnt matter what you
print? Screen printing gives same result?
          Good luck.....
