|
|
So I just finished building my computer, Everything went well.
I popped in the hp officejet 5610x driver disk for windows xp.
I said it was not compatable since i had windows xp 64 bit sp2.
So i thought w/e, so i popped in the vista driver disk. It said it was only for windows vista 64 bit. Then i go to there website to look for a windows xp 64 bit driver.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=441125&lang=en&
I clicked on windows xp 64bit. It didn't have a driver available.
So what do i do now without having to install windows vista?
Also, I have a Q9400 with stock heatsink fan running at 19c-23c, is that good?

If the manufacter website doesn't have it, what makes you think fry's is going to have it.
I was thinking some sort of emulation or modding.

Sell it on Ebay and use that money to buy a printer compatible with your computer system.

If you 'have abilities that can't be met by 32bit' then thats probably too much for XP in the first place.
Not to mention 64bit XP sucks gigantic fucking dick.

Yeah, I've notice that most programs and driver are made for vista 64bits rather then xp 64 bit. For example itunes 64 bit. I had to edit it using a tutorial to make it work with xp. I I can't get it to work by next Friday, I'll be install windows vista 64 bits.

Install Vista X64 right now. X64 XP is plauged with poor driver support and overall fucking suck.
