Vista loses drivers
Why is it that Vista can't hang on to drivers that have been successfully
installed. I have an HP laser printer and an HP All-in-One. Both have Vista drivers which have been installed and both work correctly...for a while. Periodically, Vista says it needs to look for new drivers, then it can't find the drivers, and I'm tied up for hours trying to get Vista to recognize one printer or the other. Sometimes Vista (Ultimate) loses track of the USB printer drivers and sometimes it is the Scanner driver. I had to buy all new printers/scanner to work with Vista, and yet I have to spend hours keeping them connected properly in Vista. |
