Installation knocks off HP printer. Download new driver from HP and install
gives no printer connection. Computer opens and closes WindowsXP very
slowly. Cause??? --Any tips on proceedure or cause that I can correct??

Clean Windows Startup and hidden Startup:

Spyware/Virus Removal and Prevention:

To resolve HP issue, remove all previous installations, and try some
compatible (generic) Windows XP driver – run Add Printer Wizard, and select
the driver from the list of available XP drivers. Example: For HP 1300
install HP LaserJet 1100 (MS).

Good Luck!
