A neighbor has an HP PSC 750 (on a Windows 98 computer) which has worked with no problems. All of a sudden it is printing right to the edge of the physical printer margin and cutting off characters on both sides. He thinks this started when his son installed an additional printer - an HP...

I installed MS Office 2000 on a new computer (XP Pro) and moved my .pst file from the old computer (2000 Pro). On the old computer I had multiple contact lists set up as folders within the main Contacts folder. In an email form, selecting 'To' would allow me to access any of the folders. Now...
