If I am understading everything correctly. I thought I needed to install the
vista driver on my xp machine. The Vista is running driver version
6.0.6000.16386 and my XP is running driver 5.0. Is the driver availible to
download and will that fix the problem? I have not tried the previous threads
with the hoop jumping. If this is a simple solution let me know.
