Subject: RE: Tech: Printer driver for offline computer?
Joe,
I lost the use of my beloved large screen scanner, which ran on Win 95 and 98, when I bought the XP machine so I was aware that I may have some problems with 7. It hurts to lose the use of something we love. It's also a terrible waste to have to throw away something that still works just fine. Someone needs to go after Microsoft about the obsolescence they create whenever they introduce a "new" operating system.

They get bit in the ass by Microsoft, just like you have been. One of the major joys of WIN 7 is having to replace all your peripherals.

I'm wondering now what else I normally use that will not work with the new machine. It came with a monitor. The old keyboard works. If it won't accept my external drives, I'll really be hooped. I need to find out before the 90 days expires and I can't take it back. (adding "checking the drives" to Monday's To Do list.)
