I am using XP Pro SP3 and have installed an Epson TX 100 Multifunction Printer using Epson Software. On testing I found it will print Text documents created by MS Word but it will not print Text created by Notepad. Epson state this is a problem related to Notepad and has nothing to do with the Printer. Can anyone offer any clues on this one, please.

I recently upgraded my Vista Premium to SP2 and then uninstalled SP2 since one of my applications was not working with SP2. Now that a patch is available for that application (which I have downloaded and applied), I wanted to upgrade to SP2 again. I did so and was notified that it was installed correctly. Yet, when I look at the System window from the Control Panel, I see that SP1 is installed. And when I look at the Control Panel | Windows Update | Review Update History, I see that Vista SP2 was installed successfully (on the second installation date). What gives?

I have noticed that new Microsoft programs (Media Player 11, Live Mail, etc...) all have a "Vista Theme" to their title bars. I do not mind this, but I would like to have a consistent look to all my windows. Is there a way to turn on the Vista title bars in all of XP windows, or a way to turn off the Vista title bars in the new programs? Thanks, Jim
