windows me hp pavillion computer hp psc750printer
cheers
ps shes promised me a drink if i can fix it :rolleyes:
 
Does it show in Control Panel?
Try disconnecting it and then reconnecting it and checking the cables.
I'm not too sure about why you can't get the wizard to work, a little strange, maybe someone else can enlighten you.
 
thanks matt
i think the kids were messing with the computer the wizard works but i cant get it to go to win\temp\sys etc to pick up driver i found driver by using search c: for drivers they are on the hard drive
cheers
 
glad i could be of assistance, anything else just ask, that's what we're here for, bleh kids...dont let them mess with anything technological... :mad:
 
so the printer doesnt show up in control panel, but the wizard does work it just cant find that specific folder? If it can't find that specific folder can you move the driver to another folder?
