Still HP C3180 problems

This comes from my previous post in this.

I followed the two adviced recieved but I still cannot install the driver
for the HP Photosmart C3180.

This is what I did in my last try

1) Uninstalled by all possible means every HP driver and software previously
installed

2) Tried to insall

"HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers"

from

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...&cc=us&dlc=en&product=1146331&os=2093&lang=en

Following the instruccions which is to keep the USB cable unplugged and the
printer off until the installer says otherwise.

This doesn't pass the driver insallation part.

3) Without un-installing anything from the fail step (2), tried to install:

"HP Photosmart Basic Print and Scan Driver"

from

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...&cc=us&dlc=en&product=1146331&os=2093&lang=en

With the USB cable unplug all the time.

This installer finishes saying that is all ready to be used.

But no.. when I plug the USB cable and turn the printer on, the Vista Device
Manager says that new hardware was found and starts the normal process only
to fail in the end saying that it couldn't find any driver.


Any ideas?

TIA

Fernando,

Some folks have had good fortune in resolving problems such as you have by
deleting the INFCACHE.1 file. It's
located at C:\Windows\inf (scroll down to the file). It's OK to delete the
file even when it has nothing to do with the problem.

!!!!!!!VOILA!!!!!!!!

That fixed it!

After deleting that file, I just turned on the printer an let the device
manager find the driver, which this time worked.

Not only that.. the HP installer resumed from the point it failed before, so
I now have all the printer and scanner stuff in place.

Thank you very much!

Fernando
 
Fernando,

Removing that file sometimes works, but sometimes not. I've added that fact
to my long list of things I know but don't understand. I'm glad it worked
for you.

I know deleting that file has resolved USB detection problems in quite a few
instances, however, Darrell Gorter from MS posted a reply to one of these
threads cautioning against deleting that file. He said it can have other
effects. Unfortunately he never replied to my request for more info on what
problems deleting InfCache.1 can have. I have not been recommending that
solution for now because of his (uncertain) response.
 
Rock,

Yeah, I'd like to know what problems could be in store, too. I wonder why
he Didn't respond. Maybe he's having problems finding the answer. No one
who has benefited from removing that file has posted back with an issue.
Dunno.

Dunno.

I really haven't seen Darrell much, or at all since that time. Maybe
something else happened with him.
 
That fixed my problem too - doesn't look like any adverse effects
either.
Thanks so much!!
