Blue Screen when installing Epson C60 Printer

[Guest]

I have XP Home and after I installed my Epson C60 printer, the system gives me a blue screen and crashes, then restarts. The blue screen flashes too fast to read the error before it reboots. Note when I plugged inthe printer, Windows did not detect it. I had to install the drivers manually. After installing it worked okay but after I rebooted the machine it would crash over and over. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Are you using the lastest Epson XP drivers? Remove the drivers from the
Device Manager , unplug the printer , reboot and install the XP drivers.

I'm guessing, but did you install the printer following the instructions
from Epson? Epson products are notorious for NOT using the Add New Hardware
Wizard to install the software. A friend of mine forgot about this and
tried to install his printer manually and had problems similar to yours
until he deleted the printer from Device Manager and stuck the Epson Install
CD in and did it the Epson way.
