Re: Problem connecting XP machine to Win 2K network

OK - that's the printer driver that is known bad (the list is in
%windir%\inf\printupg.inf - meddling with that file is not recommendable).

But that file also lists an inbox replacement, so I would have expected that
you'd get warned about the incompatible driver but then getting the inbox
driver installed automatically.
