From: Sparky Pete. on 22 Apr 2010 17:44 I keep getting the following update via windows 7 update. (last time I installed it again.) I have now installed the same update 3 times and as you can see it says its successful every time. I even done a resart stright after even thow it does not ask me to. Is there a reason why windows 7 update does not reconise I have already installed this update?

It's a good thing you did it straight and was not drinking/ingesting/smoking something that would alter your consciousness. And, you were polite to restart without being asked to. > Is there a reason why windows 7 update does not reconise I have already > installed this update?

Does the HP Photosmart 2570 work the way you want it to ? If the answer is yes, then you can Hide the update. The hiding procedure is the same as in Vista: http://www.petri.co.il/hide_updates_windows_vista.htm http://www.petri.co.il/images/929777_upd_vista_12.gif " If you right-click the update you want to hide, and select Hide Update, you'll see that not only it's un-selected, but it will also become "grayed out". It's hard to notice, but if you look closer you'll see it.

From: Sparky Pete. on 27 Apr 2010 13:54 Thanks for your comments. I have had the option to update again and yes I have hidden the update now. But why does windows update think I require an update as you said If its working fine why would I want it to Update. Info:- Hp Driver from their web site is no good for the printer anyway on Vista or Win7. Already tried it. Don't have it installed only have Basic driver via windows.

What's happening is that when the printer is not powered on at the same time that the computer is, then Windows Update will offer the drivers for it as it appears to "assume" that the printer needs the drivers in order to function. So the question is ... does the printer work with the basic driver ? If yes, then Hide the offered update.
