Well, we have an HP psc 1210 all-in-one printer scanner copier. The software for it was downloaded from the hp website and installed, yet the "Found new hardware wizard" pops up every time it's turned on, and insists that:
"There was a problem installing this software.
An error occured during the installation of the device. The system cannot find the file specified.
Click finish to close the wizard."
When closed, the small popup notice appears at the bottom right notification spot, and shortly after, the above error message appears again. It seems to be willing to cycle to infinity.
The printer works fine, printing happily whenever asked to. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer software, to no effect. The annoying little message still reappears.
Is there any way to tell the Found new hardware wizard to ignore a particular device?
Oh yes, it's Windows XP Home 2003, Microsoft Office Small Business 2003, Norten Antivirus 2005 on a Dell Dimension 8200.
