Microsoft locked down I/O ports after windows 9x due to security issues but you can get usermode access to them using a special kernel mode driver found here. After you run that program, you can use debug to toggle pins. Debug uses Hex values so, to switch on 3,4 and 7 you'd do

 debug
 -o 378 02
 G
 -o 378 04
 G
 -o 378 20
 G

You can wrap that into a batch file or just run it from a CMD prompt.
