How do I install my color laserjet 2605 dn on my windows vista laptop.

I have been using an HP Color Laserjet 2605 dn on my aging Windows XP computer.  Now that the system is becoming unreliable, I purchased a new HP desktop with Windows 7.  My printer is not compatible with Win7, so my other option is to use it on my HP laptop with Win Vista.
According to what I have read,  this printer should be Windows Vista compatible.  However, when I try to install the software, I keep getting an error message that I need to be logged on as administrator or I can choose "run as administrator" or something like that.  I followed all those steps, and cannot get past this error message.  And, I AM logged on as administrator.
What can I do to get this software installed and use the printer again?  It prints wonderfully, does everything I want, including automatic duplex printing.
Thanks for any help.

    The last driver from HP was for 10.7. You could try that to see if it works. Have you tried Image Capture for scanning? Another possibility is VueScan http://www.hamrick.com

    In the email you want to print, on the top right there is an arrow. Click that and an option should appear that says print. That should work. Have you already tried that?

  • How can I install my Adobe Photoshop on my computer with Windows XP Service Pack 3?

    How can I install my Adobe Photoshop on my computer with Windows XP Service Pack 3?  Seriously frustrated.  I put the disc in the drive and nothing happens.  I open up add/remove programs and I get an error message stating it can't find a disc.  I chatted with Adobe support, and they decided to send me here. Probably because they knew I wanted to spend all day online trying to figure this out. 

    Download from Adobe's website, install then enter your serial number.

  • How do i connect my windows vista laptop to iPhone personal hotspot? Will it still work if my laptop doesnt have iTunes installed?

    I am currently using iPhone 4 and windows vista laptop. i cant seem to get my windows vista laptop to connect to the personal hotspot on my iPhone using USB. Is it because iTunes is not installed in my windows vista laptop?
    I have tried it on a MacBook Pro and it works perfectly fine.

    when you switch your hotspot on your phone you will see a user password - when you switch your laptop on and search for your iphone connect and you will be asked for the user password once you enter it and click connect you will link the two devices and they will work together as long as you have a good signal and good data allowance you shouldn't have any issues

  • Difficulty installing Rescue and Recovery 4.2 patch for Windows Vista

    Which between System Update Installation History and Post-Installation Status Report should I believe, when they tell a different story?
    When I run thinkVantage System Update, the post-intallation status report indicates that the following fails to install:
    * Rescue and Recovery 4.2 patch for Windows Vista
    * ThinkVantage Client Security Solution for Vista SP1
    * Lenovo Wireless WAN Activation Patch
    However, when I open the ThinkVantage System Update History Log, I read that the above updates have been installed.
    Which one should I believe?
    I'm willing to believe that the update has been installed, but whenever I run System Update, I keep getting the same message that the above three need to be installed.
    Should I keep ignoring the message? If not, what else could I try?
    I have a T60 running Vista with SP1 installed. 

    Hi privard,
    Thanks for your feedback. Anyhow, let me see how i could help to sort this out for you.
