If they make sense it is OK.  If not try an 'automatic' install, or
if
that fails a manual install.  Then delete any unwanted versions, as
you
could end up with several - that is, if you haven't already :-) ?

I did. A partial installation is actually a full installation it
seems, but a non-working installation defaulting to all sorts of wrong
defaults. Uninstall clears it, but next time you try to install it
goes back to the same useless defaults. It only seems to clear to
clean machine status by finding epson's .inf file for the printer.
Even though the software's been uninstalled, Windows seems to remember
what and where the driver was so the only way to make it forget is to
find and delete this .inf file.
To test if it's the onboard USB I've ordered a cheap USB-PCI card.
Only two sockets on it, and it only costs about a fiver, so if that
works I'll know the onboard USB needs to go to hospital.
OK.  Will await further reports from 'Jones HQ' ... :-)
