2 Acer netbook XP problems...
My Acer netbook w/XP has changed.
1. It now does some kind of scan or something when it returns from stand-by or hibernate or shutdown, etc. A line appears that shows a propeller made of | / - \ spinning, preceding by a few "....". The time I have to wait is annoying, but does not seem to cause a problem. 2. I am having trouble installing printers. My Brother MFC-420CN is on it's own Ethernet wire, and other W7 laptops see it, but my XP netbook doesn't. TIA, Paul |

TIA, Paul If your Brother printer is like my HP, Win 7 will find it automatically on the network. XP requires a driver install before it will even look. Terry |
