I just installed windows xp professional on my pc, and I
am trying to install my hp photosmart 1100 printer. It
will not install.

can anyone help?

go to hp and d/l the newest software, which has the up to date
drivers.

before you start, create a restore point so you can return to your
current state if you screw up--because somehow XP got screwed up and
would not shutdown, and i had to turn it off.

follow the directions exactly--iow, do NOT connect the USB connection
before you start the software, and told to from the install program.

mine installs and the printer works fine, but i have extra icons in my
sys tray which i don't want...

hth,
ron
