Hi!

Too bad it wasn't really my stuff...;o]

once again, I am over at the Troupeville clinic, suffring through yet another attempt to get balky equipment to f[beep!]ing function...

this time: getting a new Canon imageCLASS D320 photocopier to install on their beat up POS Compaq as a prinetr.

1. it functions as a copier
2. I had to replace the CD-ROM drive, and it now works properly.
3. BUT... it has refused my various efforts to get it to install the drivers/recognize the USB connection

the computer SEES the copier (I checked that out in controlpanel>system>deviceprofiles, and the damned copier IS listed) but the driver autorun setup.exe keeps balking at the last operation - it cannot "recognize" the USB connection.

having exercised what little geekery native to my noggin, I know it is missing several dll files... however, upon "update driver" it insists I already have installed the best driver.

the OS on this POS Compaq is win98.
all I can guess is that the fact that the driver section on the Canon disk labelled "win9598" is empty is the root of the problem... but I can't swear to that.

what the HELL, d00d?

HALP!!!
