The drivers come with win95. you cn use "backup" from 95 and it'll
work (sometimes-the 250/350 is kinda crappy). I would recommend you
call CMS(HP) and tell them you're having problems and have had for a
long time.They might make you a deal to trade the unit out for a 1000e
or something.

Good luck
