Now using Vista.

[worldpease]

Hi everyone... after a few days, Im back.
After long deliveration, yesterday I installed Windows Vista,
the PC seems to be taking it well, but the only thing is that I can't figure out
how to make it stop asking me what OS I want to start.
But apart from that, I just have to see how it goes when installing all my
other aplications.

Please help me!...

So far Office 2003, Corel12, Bittorrent, Azureus, WinRAR, etc.
have been installed without problems,
but by now I've been struglin like for 3 hours with my Lexmark 1100 All in One.
The freaking printer just won't print,
everything seems to be ok, the drivers and everything, but whenever I "print"
something, nothing happens,
if I open the printer (from printers and faxes), the files apear but still,
nothing happens, some times it displays a message saying that "it could'n connect to device".
The printer is connected to a USB port.
Someone told me something about checking the BIOS for port configurations,
but 'what the heck is that'....

does anyone have any ideas?,
anything?

Are you sure that vista has drivers for that printer? you cand send mail to the lexmark support maybe they have a beta driver for you.

everything seems to be ok, the drivers and everything...

Where did you find 64bit drivers for your Lexmark?
Their site shows no support for Vista yet.

Lexmark should release 64bit drivers for their All-in-One Series. I have a 64bit OS & I am at my wit's end cause I have been unable to find a 64 bit driver for my Lexmark X1185. When I called up their tech support, I was shocked that the customer support people didn't know what 'Windows XP x64 Edition' was! And when I tried to explain they just banged the phone on me. All my mails have fallen on deaf ears as I haven't got any reply yet. And to top it, I read somewhere that Lexmark has announced that they won't be releasing any 64 bit drivers for their range of All-in-Ones. That 'uncomplicate their business' thing doesn't go down well with me cause their printer has surely complicated my life. Instead of providing home-delivery of cartridges they should work on releasing appropriate drivers for their range..
