Hi, and thank you for taking the trouble to respond.

I have MS Windows Professional SP2, and the printer is Epson RX500
Will this help?

Thanks

Atul, have you checked here. Did you get the latest XP Drivers? If you
are using 256MB or Ram or less, make sure all
programs, screensavers and anything running in the background is closed.
Look in Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs
and uninstall any old Epson Printer Software. Then try installing the
software again.
