    Need help with setting up printing in xp mode. My customer has a small excavation business in which she uses a plotter with software design for xp. I have her setup on a old notebook with 512K of memory which is very limiting but usable. She has an HP desktop with quad core and 8 gigs of ram which she would like to use. She loaded Win 7 professional then xp mode plus the HP printer connected with a USB cable.

    Then we loaded the same HP printer software on to XP Mode. We disconnected the USB cable during the install process. When HP software asked to plug in the USB cable we couldn't get the software to see the printer. So, I need step by step instructions to get this working. Also any potential problems we might run into during the actual printing process. jackusa714@gmail.com
