OK thanks. If you get any that show a different error message or first set of figures or mention a file by name, then let us have that too. We don’t need the general text because all that really says it could be due to many possibilities, which is the dilemma.
At this point we don’t really know if it is due to hardware or software and I gather this blue screen is infrequent which makes it harder to pin down. The things mentioned in #1 would be useful but I accept that you don’t feel qualified to go that way.
So about all I can suggest is that you update all drivers. Not that I suspect them to be out of date but if there is any corruption it could fix them. System Restore might help but if this has been going on a long time then you will not be able to go back far enough. Neither will help if this is a hardware issue.
You could schedule a scan of the system files like this: Type cmd.exe in the Run box and hit Enter key. Then type sfc /scannow in the small black screen that appears and hit Enter. It will then do the scan.
When that has finished using the same procedure type chkdisk /f in the black box and hit Enter. It will then offer to run this next time you start up. Answer Y (for yes) and hit Enter. Restart the computer and wait for it to finish.
The commands have to be exactly right – note that each one has a single space in it.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks

Personally I prefer Sumatra PDF; No adware or sponsored crap – much smaller faster and lighter – (plus you can read e-books on it as well as pdf docs). https://kjkpub.s3.amazonaws.com/sum…
For now: Assuming you have Adobe Reader installed. Right click your file; Select, ‘Open with’. Is Adobe Rdr in the list? If so click on it and your document will open properly. You may have to go through the ‘make my default’ process to make the association automatico nce more..
If for some reason you no longer seem to have a PDF reader, either go to Adobe’s site to download the latest version: http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/re… or try SumatraPDF, above.

I think he wanted to be like the way PDFs work where you can select a printer in the normal print dialog that would be a letterhead printer so that it would only print with letter head when you selected that printer. The only way I can think of doing this is to modify the print driver to either made a new driver or change the existing to have a letter head option.
So, I guess yes if you know HPPCL and VB and or C++ or some kind of compilable language you could make a new driver and call it letterhead to run your print jobs through,
Now that being said, if you made an API using Post Script that would replace the built in in print dialog of Windows then you could do something like what he wants. I think this product does just that…
I take it you mean 20 Mbs and 100 Mbs. Mb are a measure of quantity. Mbs are a measure of bandwidth. That is the number of bits transmitted per second Having said that, you are never going to get anything like the same bandwidth over wireless as you do with a wired connection, the laws of physics woRead more

Having said that, you are never going to get anything like the same bandwidth over wireless as you do with a wired connection, the laws of physics wont allow it. There is no definitive figure and the numbers will vary enormously depending on your individual circumstances.
However you don’t say what kind of wireless hardware you have. 40 mbs is excellent for 802.11g. About average for 802.11n. A lot depends on how far away you are from the wireless router and what is in between and what local interference you might have.
In short, wireless is not and never will be a hi-tec alternative to a wired connection. It is a hi-tec solution for the need for mobility and nothing else.
