Thanks for your help.

MIDI mode is on.
Yes I tried with the EII manually set in Mac Mode.
I must say that it is automatically set in Mac Mode when I start a 
transfer but then the transfer stops.
Yes, I'm sure to use the right COM port (port 2).
I'm pretty sure I installed the driver for the EMuSer otherwise Windows 
would always ask me to install it when I plug it.
The green LED is not reacting at all.

Voltages of the DB25 interface are as follows.
Not connected:
pin2: 1.418V
pin3: 0.181V
pin9: 0V
pin10: 3.66V
pin11: 3.85V

Connected:
pin2: 0.186V
pin3: 0.168V
pin9: 0.179V
pin10: 3.645V
pin11: 3.85V

All the best,
OT
