| 201783 | 2003-12-19 10:27:00 | I have an Epson Inkjet C40UX which I am trying to install to a Win NT machine. It will not complete the installation. Is this because the driver is not for NT. If so where can I find a driver. Have tried Driverguide, no luck. Thanks Gale |

| 201784 | 2003-12-19 17:40:00 | how do you mean 'will not complete the installation' ?...........does it 'hang' .........if so ........check the disk is clean and not scratched...... | drcspy (146) | ||
| 201785 | 2003-12-19 20:09:00 | I have tried to install from the original disk and a file downloaded from the Net. Both installations hang with a message that a file is not available, though there is a version on the disk and in the downloaded version. My suspicion is that a special version of the program is required for Win NT. Thanks for your reply Gale |

| 201788 | 2003-12-20 00:39:00 | Windows NT does not officially support USB. Does this printer have a connection option other than USB, or does the PC run a third party add-on package for USB? The existence of a USB socket on a Windows NT machine should not be taken as a guarantee it works. |

| 201789 | 2003-12-20 01:01:00 | USB is a machine thing, not an OS thing. :D NT doesn't do it, as far as I know, probably because USB is hot-pluggable, and that goes against the NT security philosophy. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 201790 | 2003-12-20 04:30:00 | You are right the machine has USB connections, but no connection as being installed in the Control Panel. Also there is no Add New Hardware utility in the Control Panel. Do you know whether the position would be improved if I installed Win 98. Thanks Gale |

| 201791 | 2003-12-20 04:44:00 | well those sites I gave you definitely have drivers for 98 have you tried the win2k or xp ones ? |

| 201792 | 2003-12-20 04:55:00 | > Do you know whether the position would be improved if > I installed Win 98. Sorry, but the crystal ball fails to determine any specs of the machine. Some PC's (particularly older laptops) had the BIOS locked to a specific operating system. There is no way I could determine the suitability of any PC without knowing something about it. Its unusual to have NT on a PC unless its on a company network. 98 is insecure and not always a welcome addition to a corporate network. Any meagre clues available for those that might be able to help? |
