Vista - HP poor printer support... Canon GOOD...

HP provides no Vista printer support

Canon IP 1600 and 54200 work perfectly..

There are many HP printer drivers built into vista. The one for my model
was not, however, I picked the driver for a model number that was close to
mine and it works fine. Hp has stated that all of the drivers will be
available by early 2007.

Vista was due out 9 months ago.. Why Is there a problem with drivers????
I say it is an attempt to sell NEW equipment when Vista does it's final
release..

Also:

ATI AGP 128 MB graphics card with their new Vista drivers will not play
Windows Movie Maker..

But NVIDAIA PCI 128 MB 5200 will..

????????

A conspiracy

?????? 8

It is up to the hardware vendors to provide MS with drivers for their
individual products and if they do not or they do not pass MS tests then MS
does not provide them with their release.

Peter.. You haven’t been keeping up much lately have you..
It appears there maybe a Asus board/ATI/Vista problem.
I have been able to figure this out by posting a question and weeding threw
and avoiding rants such as yours..
