I have XP (SP2) home.....in about the last four days when I turn on the
computer I get the following.............
"Welcome to the found new hardware wizard.
If you hardware came with an installation cd or floppy disk insert it now."

Now I don't have a any notion what this is all about....I cancel it, but
everytime I switch on the computer it comes back.
(a) what is it....should I have it ...or do I need it??
(b) how do I get rid of this message permanently??
Thanks

Have you changed or added printers, or updated a printer driver?

Take a look (via this short link) to an old archive of our Ms Kelly's advice.

No, we had some work done on the computer a couple of months ago but
nothing since then has happened.

Hello Freddo,
Have you changed or added printers, or updated a printer driver? Or perhaps used System Restore to restore to an older point.
