Hi
I haven't been able to test this on this computer because there is no lpt or com port. Someone else may give you more specific instructions.
Did your add on cards have install discs where the address could be specified. If so they may not be changeable from the device manager.
It appears that when you reinstalled your HDD the resources were realocated to ports other than the original. to fix this you will need to open the control panel and select device manager-hardware- resources and select the standard LPT and COM port addresses in
port settings- advanced
LPT1 should be 0378-037F
COM1 should be (COM1) 03F8-03FF
If these ports are allocated to something else you will need to change this first.
I think you have already tried this without success but it is the way I did it. My options were not greyed out
