... I got a new computer and tried to hook up the old printer.

Please tell us the make and model of the printer you are trying to use, and the source of the drivers you are using. In many cases, printer manufacturers did not provide Vista drivers for older models, forcing owners to purchase new printers to use with Vista. |
