Instalation of printer

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

Hi, my printer (hp deskjet 3325) was working fine until i
installed an external cd writer which was an old one that
connect through the printer port. This then messed up my
computer which kept on turning off.After i loaded up in
safe mode and uninstalled the drive my computer works
fine but the printer no longer works. I have uninstalled
the printer successfully but if i try to reinstall it i
just get the data error - cyclic redundancy check and the
printer will not install!

I would really appreciate any help!
Thanks
Ryan

Hello Ryan

Have you tried going to hp's website and down the drivers
from their instaed of trying to re-install from the cdrom, I would
give that a try since you have not mentioned that.

Don't lower the river, raise the bridge!

Go and do a System restore to a time prior to the installation of that CD
Writer.

Now that everything works again, go out and spend a few dollars buying a new
CD Writer [internal IDE], only $30 and it will work properly, better and
faster!
