Im trying to install a Lexmark printer but Im having some problems. When I try to install the drivers, I get some errors saying that they're missing files from my HD and asks me to insert my WinXP SP2 CD, but all I have is the SP1 CD and it dosent work. I downloaded the Missing files off the net and I got my printer to work, But then My Iexplorer6 and Firefox stopped working. I dont know what to do. I use system restore to go back to before I Installed anything and here I am asking for help. From waht I remember some of the missing files were: usbscan.sys wiafbdrv.dll And I think a few more. I had the same problem With an Old HP printer and when I DL the missing DLL's off the net it worked fine, but now it dosent. Any Help?? Thanx, Silo
I have SP2 installed already so I dont think that is the problem (But Im no Pro), But when i got my labtop it came with SP1 CD . Think I should reinstall the SP2? Silo
Yes it is, its a Lexmark X1270 : Printer, Scanner, Copyer. Sounds like your on to something. Run with it... Thanx
these 2 files usbscan.sys, wiafbdrv.dll points to multifunction printers. is this the file you downloaded from lexmark, cjb1200EN.exe version 1.0.11.0 ?
I didnt Download any files from lexmark it came with an installation disk that I used to try to install the printer. I dont know if this helps but I actually called lexmark and they told me that the problem was with My OS, they said that if it was a Lexmark problem then the filenames would have started with "L". You think I Should try and install the file you are refuring too?
try itas can't do any worse than what is happening now. make certain to uninstall old lexmark stuff 1st before installing new files.
Ok thanx Ill try that, Ill get back to you too after the install and tell you the verdict. Thanx again, Silo
Ok so I reinstalled SP2, and Im not sure but I think it might of worked. Im still in the BETA stages, but everything seems to be working ok. I just wanted to say thanx for all your help. If anything dose go wrong ill post again. Afterdawn Member For Life, Silo Once again, Afterdawn saved my A$$.
