| | Re: brother mfc-640cw problems configure the BIOS for the USB ports. See if another setting allows the boot. Most likely the new system is USB 2. If the printer is more than 5 years old it most likely only supports USB 1 which might be the conflict. Also make sure you have all the USB patches for Vista. If you are running SP2 you should be good. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base here: http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1 This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
