It appears this computer was not made for Windows 7 compatibility. The only drivers listed on the HP web site are for XP. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=449232&lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=44866&taskId=135

The problem is that Windows 7 uses a different type of driver than XP did. So many computers and peripherals made for XP will not work on Windows 7.

My suggestion is if you still have the XP disk, put it back on the PC and save Windows 7 for when you get a newer computer.
