I made the mistake of letting windows update install Dell 962 printer driver updates. The printer stopped working as soon as the updates installed. I then attempted to completely uninstall all 962 printer devices/software. several reboots. more errors. then attempted to reinstall from the original Dell printer CDs (dated 2004/2005) . more errors. ran the "driver update" from support.dell.com for the 962 (edit: "R92834.EXE" ). rebooted. more errors. Is there a comprehensive list

If you want "full" support from micro$oft, buy a computer with no operating system, then get a "retail" version of Windows OS, and install it. ??? Microsoft has a long-standing policy of providing "free" support for problems installing patches/service packs.

unfortunately I'm not familiar with that specific model, but I'm curious about something: re: " I want to upgrade my HDD to SSD. " Why? Have you studied the controversy about SSD "reliability"? ( http://www.dvorak.org/blog/2009/01/11/my-new-solid-state-drive-raid-0-array/ ) --- google "SSD Dell Precision T5400" http://www.crucial.com/store/ssd.aspx There is no information for non-laptop Dell Precisions! Have you tried the "spare parts" wizard/thingy

of course. shouldn't there be a law that states that you can't install apple software on a windows machine? seriously though, I do not know what the precise origins of this problem is, but you will probably have to uninstall/reinstall your CD device drivers? what machine model and operating system? what do you see in "system properties | hardware | device manager"? what do you see in the pre-boot bios/setup screen?
