Make sure that you're using the correct values.  Outportb will send one
BYTE (or character) to the address given, whereas I believe OutportW will
send the first BYTE of an Integer to the address, and the second byte of
the integer to address+1.  What would help is for you to post the
questionable code in QB and in C and then I can see what you're trying to
do.
