Default Need help changing parallel port resources

Need to change parallel port resources in XP. Currently I/O Range of
0378-037AF and 0778-077F. I need to end up with a parallel port with the I/O
range of 0378=037A, an I/O range of 0778-077A and a DMA of 03. This is not
for a printer but a piece of hardware that connects to the parallel port.

Thanks in advance

Control Panel (Classic view)--- System-- Hardware-- Device Manager.

Under "Ports (COM & LPT)", double click "ECP Printer Port (LPT1)"
Click "Resources" tab.
UNTICK "Use automatic settings" then click the button "Change Setting".

Thanks but I did try that but it will not let me change the addresses, only
to use base configurations. If I attempt to change the resource by using the
change setting I get - The resource setting cannot be modified in this
configuration.
