Hi,

I formated a friends computer and Win2K on there. Everythign went well. We then installed the USB Printer which is a HP Deskjet 932C. We downloaded the drivers and went through both installs, 1 with the setup.exe program and then through the printer dialog in the printers folder. Each one works, and when I print something it works, but then when I reboot, it blue screens. Then if I unplug the printer and reboot again, things are normal. Any help?
 
I have found that the best bet is to manually remove and re-install the printer drivers and not try to delete the printer fron the printers folder. Windows leaves a lot of file behind.
