    I have Vista and have been trying to add a Lexmark 7100 Series Printer.  I get messages

    1)  Spooler SubSystem App stopped working and was closed and

    2)  Unable to install printer. The printer driver is not compatible with a policy enabled on your computer that blocks NT4.0 drivers.

    Can anyone help?
