Unhandled Exception - Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I've installed drivers for my HP printer but I keep getting an unhandled exception with the following detail:

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT de**** registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

.NET Development6

to me it appears this question is more of a technical support question rather than a development question. I would suggest contacting HP for help on this matter.

IF it is something you have developed, please post the source code and the line where the exception is coming from

I contacted HP they said the issue is related to the operating system.

I was told that I need to install the .NET frame work or Java Virtual Machine or MSXML to resolve the issue.

The printer works despite this error window.

I doubt very much its to do with the OS if its their software....anyway, its not a development issue so again, either post on their forums or try posting here:

Thanks. I will return to HP for someone more knowledgeable.
