Problem with printing

[Guest]

Hi,
I do not have the "add printer" driver in my version of
the xp home edition. Somehow I have deleted it! I first
found it out when I was trying to re-install my Lexmark
z25 printer, and I clicked "add printer", which
showed "operation cannot be completed". I tried to
install the printer software from the cd, but it could
not install and stated that "the spooler could not be
found" or something like that. I went into the command
prompt and typed "net start spooler", and that gave me an
error # 1038, showing that the group of operations could
not be identified.
I would most appreciate if somebody could help.
Regards,
Kuntal

First off you should go scan your computer for virus'
because it sounds like you have one. Go to
http://housecall.trendmicro.com and click on Scan Now,
it's Free! If it finds any virus' wipe them out then see
if your problem goes away. If it finds no virus', which
would surprise me, then see about running a repair of
Windows XP. You will need to contact Microsoft to learn
how to do this. Good Luck!

Did you clean the drive and defrag lately. Sometimes
problems like these occur from fragmented drives.
