Driven

Just spent about two hours configuring my daughter's new PC.

Apparently, Lexmark didn't see fit to release a Windows 7 driver for their 5150 printer. But they say that the Vista driver should work.

This opinion, not shared by people who post about such things. Apparently, it will kind of work. But not totally.

Ah.

Windows 7 drivers or the lack thereof have driven me crazy most of this year. And I certainly cannot configure my way out of a cardboard box!!

Really makes me glad we bought the PC. I heard years ago the advice that when you upgrade a PC, upgrade everything associates to it. That's overkill, but there are times...on the other hand, if we DID upgrade our printer, one of those wireless ones could be pretty nifty. HP has some nice ones with dual side print capability.
