Hii!

I have a Lexmark P3150 All in one Printer (got it for free from a friend) and I downloaded the drivers from the lexmark website..and suddenly i realize..its not compatable with Windows Vista (which my laptop has), its only compatable with windows xp. I've read a couple of complaints from the lexmark website about this problem and it looks like they wont be updating a new driver for Vista users.

Should i try to downgrade my laptop from Vista to XP in order to get the printer working? or any other options?


thanks!

You can install Windows XP on a virtual machine like VMware, or virtual box. It is pretty easy to do. you just need 10+ GB of free space on your Hard drive. There are plenty of tutorials on Virtualbox, and VMware online.
