For those interested. I inquired over the weekend regarding help to get my printer operating again after installing SP2. After trying all suggestions and a lot of my own "trial and errors" no success. Couldn't even uninstall the printer and reinstall it. Could get so far and uninstall would refuse to proceed any further. End result! Uninstalled SP2 completely and "Bob's your uncle." All is working OK. SP2 must overwrite printer drivers or something and during the uninstall, copied original drivers back - my guess!! -------list-services-below----------- Regards, John Durham (list moderator) <http://modecideas.com/contact.html?sig> Freelists login at http://www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi List archives at http://www.freelists.org/archives/pchelpers PC-HELPERS list subscribe/unsub at http://modecideas.com/discuss.htm?sig Latest news live feeds at http://modecideas.com/indexhomenews.htm?sig Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
