It's quite possible that the "prints laying on his desk" are of his
family. Despite what we may think, I doubt he emerged full-bodied from
some puddle of ooze somewhere. He had to have parents. Or perhaps it's
some unrequited love, someone who once rejected him because of his
obsessions. Whatever, there are legitimate reasons why a photo might
remain on a person's desk for several years.

You are absolutely right, TJ. I would suggest, however, that if the
pictures are of an unrequited love, someone who rejected him because of his
obsessions, we would also have had a report from him of the relative
waterproof qualities of OEM ink when subjected to his outpouring of tears
when viewing the photo continually for four years.

You certainly have a point there.
Re: HP TSST Corp TS-L632 M Drivers seem to be worthless in new HPAnd Compaq
WHAT CD came installed in both of your laptops?
Or did you mean "optical drives" rather than CD? {a "CD" is a disc
media holding about 650MB of data).
Use of correct terminology is important. Never the less, optical drives
normally do not require installation of any drivers at all (drivers for
the IDE or SATA port that they connect to will be installed
automatically as part of Windows, and typically runs the hard drive as
well).

Re: HP TSST Corp TS-L632 M Drivers are fixed or repaired
OK I hit the F11 button on restarting and followed the instructions to reload the computer to factory specs. The driver HP TSST Corp TS-L632 M or what ever it is called is now loading properly'.
Thanks to all who helped.

If I was wrong about the driver HP TSST Corp TS-L632 M, I apoligize to who ever developed and distributed it'

Some of the Windows 9x drivers may yet be available, but it'll take a
bit of detective work to find them. I just checked with hp.com about a
Windows 98SE driver for my PSC 2110, and I got the message that Windows
98 drivers were no longer available. Remembering that the file I
downloaded a while ago was for multiple Windows versions, I looked at
what was listed for Win2000 - and saw the same filename, size, and
datestamp that I have. I believe it to be the same file.
HP themselves says that if you have either disks or a downloaded file,
it's fine to use them. That does not, in my view, change anything
relative to people who lost their disk and don't have a previous
download saved.
