I notice that you have three devices plugged into usb + the printer - Do you have 4 usb ports?, or are you hot swapping them as needed?

Normally with usb printers, you have to install the software first, and then plug the printer in.

You could try updating the drivers:

The RPC server error - RPC is remote procedure calling (i think), which means the installation softeware could be trying to connect to a lexmark server.

Failing that, have a look at lexmarks support pages:

http://support.lexmark.com

Hope that helps

as for the windows installation error, I dont like and hence use winXP, but you could have a look at microsofts support page for info.

I presume though that you already have windows installed in order to have everything else running, so why would you be installing windows again?
