Printer Driver not working after upgrading from ME to XP

Dear Knowledgable People,

After upgrading from ME to XP, I have been confounded with
multiple problems.

Today's problem is my printer & driver.

Prior to "up"grading from ME to XP, my HP OfficeJet G55
was working fine. I then installed XP.

I have tried all the suggestions on the troubleshooters
page (e.g. removing old drivers, downloading a new driver
from HP, unplugging the printer cable.) When I re-plug
the printer cable, XP does not recognize new hardware, and
I am thus unable to install the printer.

Please help me. My printer was working prior to upgrading
from ME to XP. I think there may be some "hidden" file
that is causing confusion, but I have no idea where to
work. (I've already un-intalled all software with XP, but
that doesn't seem to do the trick).

Thanks,

Arthur

Don't upgrade, it sucks in 95% of the cases! Clean, clean, clean... that's
how you should work!

Format, upgrade and when the setup asks for previous system (ME), point it
to your CDROM drive that contains the original ME CD.
