| | 2 Month old Hp9100 Laptop printer scanner problems I upgraded my wifes comp. to a HP laptop and it has Vista installed which I did install. The 'All-in-One 3180' printer scanner software doesn't work. I was in a chat with HP for about 1 1/2 Hrs. uninstalling and re-installing the program. Also reset Active-X which was set right to begin with. Al the time I spent on line with HP didn't solve the problem. Also I have been on line with Norton because there AV program won't "auto-update". That is another can of worms though. I would have been happy enough with an XP Pro edition but HP wouldn't sell it. They said Vista was only available. Vista has cost me more unfruitful hours than I care to talk about. I have got the scanner /printer working with a third part software though. |
