0: Have you set the coolrunner to prg mode so it is still not in normal mode?

1: Are you using a bought lpt->coolrunner cable or did you make one yourself?

2: Tried with 2xAA batteries or a 2032 button cell battery to power it?

3: Tried different LPT settings in BIOS? (SPP/ECP/EPP etc etc)

LPT is by someways x10 harder to troubleshoot, then lets say Nand-x to coolrunner JTAG cable, as there is so many more variables to take into account...

I found doing my first RGH with a homemade cable that i had to disable my serialport in bios for the LPT to work properly...

And lastly; Photos, clear and as highres as you can make them, of the soldering on the coolrunner.
