| | Lexmark X2480 install problem (Vista Ultimate). Hello, I bought a Lexmark X2480 and I am unable to install it on my system. I do not have the driver cd as I bought it as a return-product, and I downloaded the newest driver from Lexmark.com, but I am unable to install it on Vista Ultimate. I use the downloaded driver program, follow the setup and insert the USB-cable when required, but after the setup it just says that the driver is not installed. And during the installation the Windows hardware installation driver dialog pops up and does not go away, so I guess it does not get installed anyway. I have tried to install the drivers manually using the .INF but I only get an error saying that it doesn't find the driver. And yes, I do install it with administrative privileges. Hope you have anything, thank you! |
