| advice and help wanted - new lap top hard drive
Hi,
Hoping that some of the local IT experts on here will be able to offer me some advice.
My hard drive crashed in my lap top big style, no use at all so can not copy any software of it. I've now sourced and fitted a new hard drive. Loaded Windows XP on to it, but, when I plug a printer in to the USB port it does not seem to recognise it. Do I need to install USB drivers ? if so what other drivers will I need to load up ?
Any advice where to find the relevant soft ware ? is it a case of visiting the manufacturers web site ?
I have a second lap top that is working OK, but, I want to swap the hard drive on that. Is it possible to copy the USB drivers and any others to a CD before I swap the hard drive, or do I just fit a new one and download all the necessary software.
Thanks for any advice. |
