Geno, since you didn't provide the make/model of your computer, I can't give you a definitive answer.  However, if you do a search on this forum for XP drivers for your model, someone may have already had the same problem.  HP has seen fit to not provide support for XP on Vista based computers.  This is why you can't find them on the drivers page.

 

Dmhoo29, you beat me again.  I guess I will have to type faster.
