I have encountered a weird problem on a client's machine that has me
stumped. I'd welcome any suggestions.
At every boot the new hardware wizard identifies an item it calls 'Printer'.
If you run the wizard, it fails to install, you press cancel and the little
hardware icon by the clock disappears. Also checking the box for the pc to
not reinstall this hardware again makes no difference- this wizard appears
at every boot regardless.
At no time during this process does any extraneous device show up in device
manager. All devices are properly installed in device mananger. The printer
on this PC is knackered and has been uninstalled both from Printers and Add
remove programs.
There are no devices other than ethernet cable,monitor cable, ps2 mouse and
keyboard hooked up. NO usb devices present.
can anyone help me eliminate this annoyance for my client?
thanks in advance
