My computer died on me and I'm trying to install VersaWorks 2.2.0 on my new computer. It will not recognize the printer. Any help would be appreciated.

I am not sure what the going cost is right now for it. Give me a call also if you have a chance.

A lot of things can be done to rescue lost data, as long as you don't write over deleted data it's still there it's just that the computer doesn't remember where it is and will use it as empty space.

If the hard drive is the problem put it in the freezer for a couple of hours then jam it into a tray and fire it up, then quickly drag files off, if it shuts down stick it back in the freezer.Strange but true, I fix the damn things also.

Had to do that to more Vista machines than I care to remember... glad I skipped that version myself.
