Couple of questions

Hi there

I currently have W7 Evaluation Copy (build 7100) on one HD and Vista HomePrem 64bit on my other HD. I have ordered W7 Ultimate Upgrade and I was wondering if I could simply upgrade W7 with it? Or will I have to install it on the Vista drive?


I also have a bit of a niggle, maybe I should post it in a different thread, but Ill ask here for now -

My HP Photosmart D5460 printer works fine in Vista but in W7, it is, to all intents and purposes installed, yet it won't print anything. I click to print something, it says its printing and the print icon appears in the task bar. But nothing happens. When I look in the printer queue nothing is there waiting to be printed. I thought Id downloaded the correct drivers (I could only find Vista ones though) but maybe they're just not compatible with W7. Is there a logical list of things to do to troubleshoot this.

Oh - I just looked and it doesn't seem to appear in Device Manager but it is showing in Devices and Printers:




Thanks for any help
