Device and Printers Before I installed a program called "Advanced SystemCare V5" when I clicked on Device and Printers I could view all the devices and printers connected to my computer. Now before I go any further, everything works just fine. In fact everything shows up in the the device manager. After I installed this program nothing is listed, even tho things still work just fine. I uninstalled this program and still nothing is listed. So what can I do to view all the devices and printers again?

Go to the manufacture site of your printer and download their driver for your model.
Should have asked this from the git go!
I am closing down for the night but hang in there as others will chime in to help you out.

I will look for your reply. However, I think what I should do a re-install of windows/programs up to that point. Make an ISO of the system (been meaning to do this) and then install that last program. Another thing happen was that my cut and paste stop working as well. Could be a system problem. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell XPS 17 OS Windows Professional 64bit CPU Intel Core i7 2820QM @ 2.30GHz, Sandy Bridge 32nm Motherboard 03RG89, Intel Ver: A12 Memory 16GB Graphics Card Generic PnP Monitor (1600x900@60Hz), NVIDIA GeForce GT 555m Sound Card High Definition Audio Device Monitor(s) Displays NVIDIA 3D Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 3d Hard Drives 250GB SAMSUNG SAMSUNG SSD PM810 2.5" 256GB ATA Device (SATA-SSD)

If you do a clean install...Here is the correct way to do this. Clean Install Windows 7
Keep in mind you may have to install all the drivers again....takes time!
Back up you system before proceeding.

Thanks for the info. My PC came from DELL, as I've done this several times before hand. However, I think an ISO copy and store away should save me time next time I do this right? I'm new to ISO and things. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell XPS 17 OS Windows Professional 64bit CPU Intel Core i7 2820QM @ 2.30GHz, Sandy Bridge 32nm Motherboard 03RG89, Intel Ver: A12 Memory 16GB Graphics Card Generic PnP Monitor (1600x900@60Hz), NVIDIA GeForce GT 555m Sound Card High Definition Audio Device Monitor(s) Displays NVIDIA 3D Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 3d Hard Drives 250GB SAMSUNG SAMSUNG SSD PM810 2.5" 256GB ATA Device (SATA-SSD)
