Thanks for the Info
I am going to post the BIOS info I've found but would suggest waiting till tomorrow to take BIOS action as one of our Hardware Masters might see something of a less drastic fix. Especially with the printer detail. Printer drivers are very closly associated with grapics drivers in general.
Anyway this is what I found Re: your BIOS:

featuring plug-and-play, IDE drive auto-configure
