You sound surprised. LOL.
I didn't mention any because I never had to use any other than
Driver Cleaner Pro, which doesn't work on HP drivers. I
suggested you do a search for them and see what you can find
that may be free.
I didn't mention any registry cleaner. Avoid those unless you
HAVE to have one, they can cause more problems than they could
fix. Get some recommendations on that as well. I use ERUNT's
registry optimizer (with no problems), but I don't know if it's
actually a "cleaner".

Great Minds Think Alike Department:
Clint, I received your email together with a response from HP.
HP said the same thing as you - that I should try a 3rd party
registry
cleaner!
They suggested that I visit
http://www.wugnet.com/shareware/spow.asp?ID=524
which recommends Your Uninstaller! 2008 Pro
and http://www.acelogix.com/ which is Ace Utilities.
Both of them are Shareware.
Clint, I looked for your suggestions for a registry cleaner. I
couldn't find
them. You did write that I should look for a driver cleaner (I
never knew
they existed) but you didn't give any specifics. Did I miss
something in
your messages?
Harold suggested RegSeeker, at
http://www.hoverdesk.net/freeware.htm
Does anybody have any other or different recommendations?
