CANON!!

[BN]

Ok, so after installing SP2, I could no longer open
the 'My Computer' Window nor anything to do with it and
my PC constantly froze. I have now discoverd that it is
when i install the multipass software for my Canon MPC190
All-in-one printer that causes the problem. I have the
latest drivers from Canon and still it occurs. I have
allowed all the programs in the windows Firewall Canon
told me to, but still the problem occurs. So now im stuck
without a printer. If anyone knows how I might fix this
problem, lease HEEELLLPPP.
Thanks. BN.

Wait for Canon to come up with a fix? or

Buy a MFC device that is compatible. or

Go back to SP1.

Why in the world would tech support make you change FireWall settings?
Maybe they were reading this:

Anyways, uninstall the software, reboot to Safe Mode, install the
software there, then reboot and see if it works. I have had to do that a
couple times while it was still in Beta (though I haven't had a problem
in RTM).

I looked through here, but didn't see your software:

Post a question on the Canon website about this.
I too have a similar problem with my Canon MPC600f - I
have logged a question on the Canon website. If enough of
us do this then perhaps they will take it seriously.

Try this

Start-run
services.msc

Look for services that control cannon printer service and set to
automatic.

Also
Print Spooler needs to set to automatic
Reboot.

If not
Try an older xp driver if you have that.
Some older drivers work better than the new drivers.

I manage to get my canon printer MPC190 working after the SP2 upgrade + no
more "hang" when opening window explorer.

what i did. (logged) CHEERS!!!

1. Boot in Safe Mode
2. Remove all multipass software from add/remove programme
3. Delete the default folder for Canon Multipass (programs folder)
4. Open registry and search for "canon" & "multipass"
5. Delete all related registry highlighted for the above
6. Restart PC and start windows normally
7. Install Multipass software and Driver for Printer.
8. CHEERS!!! It Works....

*tinker* I guess the printer driver could not do a proper
migration/installation during the windows update to Service Pack 2. Need to
do a fresh install.
