All is well that ends in pizza.
ita, can she just find a restore point, or doesn't she have that enabled?

So far it looks like they want you to buy the restore disks -- he'll keep looking

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, fuck. I'm going to have her call support. I can't walk her through all this from here. If Vista shipped with restore points enabled, then maybe it's an option.

If she's got the HP Help & Support option installed (not the default Windows H&S), there's a scan option in there which can automatically download drivers: link
For some reason, HP doesn't allow direct driver downloads for all of their hardware, especially on Vista....

Thanks, Matt. I'll forward that to her.

So is there any modern type of VCR where I can just set to record things without having a subscription? It seems like Comcast only has HD DVRs which are $16 a month (and I am not paying that on top of cable).

This $70 DVD/VCR says it records. We have a similar model. [link]

Megan, a Tivo will work without a subscription. You won't be able to set up season passes, but you can manually schedule recordings.
There's also MythTV, but I'm not sure how plug-n-play they are. (Didn't Gud build one a while back? He would probably know better than me.)
