Win XP Reboots on HP Photosmart install

[Elmo]

I am installing an HP Photosmart 1115 printer on computer
with Win XP and when I plug in the USB cable, the found
hardware notification area begins to report finding
several parts to install (printer & card readers) and
when it gets to the card readers, it reboots and then
finds hardware again and then reboots until finally
giving me a black screen for Safe Mode , Last Known Good
Configuration or Normal Restart. Only Safe mode allows
Windows to start. If I unplug the USB cable, normal
startup occurs.

I have successfully installed this printer on a computer
with Win 98Se and another computer with Win XP

Any ideas on what is causing the problem?

Thanks
Elmo

Duplicate posting.... as previous explained you must install software BEFORE
connecting printer.
