Here's my problem... Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The computer has Windows XP Home edition. Using a D-Link wireless PCI card.
Also have an HP PSC all-in-one printer. Both items work fine. I shutdown
or reboot the computer, both items now do not work. However, if I go into
the device manager, disable lpt1 and then enable lpt1, the printer works. I
can also disable the wireless card and then enable the wireless card, the
wireless card works. Both items will work until I reboot or shutdown the
computer again.

Please help!
 
This sound like a IRQ conflict between the LPT1 port and the wireless PCI
card. Have you tried to install the PCI card in a different PCI slot?
 
I haven't tried that yet... The next thing I was going to try was to remove
the wireless card. Shouldn't disabling the card accomplish the same
results?
