Start up with new printer plugged into USB port
Have a Packard Bell computer (out of business) with
Windows 98 OS. Installed new Lexmark X1155 printer. In order for computer to boot up, I have to unplug USB cable. I suspect the problem is in the INI file start up but don't know how to correct the problem. After the computer is on, I can plug in the cable and use the printer? I'm baffled. Please help

As with 99% of USB devices, you must install the software BEFORE connecting
