Ok about a month ago I upgraded from Me to XP. Now I can't get printer to work and it all has to do with the drivers . The printer is a HP Deskjet 952c.I have a few people tell me they had to buy a new printer because they had the same thing happen to them.I have gone to HP and downloaded what they have for drivers for that model but they don't work. Searched the internet no good .So if anyone has any-ideas let me know

I have the same printer. Use the stock XP drivers for a 950c, they will work fine.

Hopefully cypher's trick will work, I am curios, did you upgrade or reformat then install XP?

Yeah, what Mayhem said. If you simply upgraded from ME to XP then you may still have the old .dll's installed and they will wreak havoc. Some mfgr's have a list of files that are installed with thier drivers. You may need to delete all the previously installed drivers, then install the stock XP ones.
