I gave up on IE 7 and downloaded Firefox as my default Browser and have
no problems with my hp deskjet 5650.

Some suggestions ....

Check out this HP webspage for your printer

Installation issues for Software & Drivers
HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One


cc=us&dlc=en&os=2093&product=3204785&lang=en

and in particular:

HP All-in-One Products - An Error Message Appears on the Computer
While Installing the Software in Windows


us&dlc=en&product=3204785&os=2093&rule=1891&lang=e n

Here's an off the top of my head thought:

You are installing software for an All in One printer onto a VISTA Home
series system and the Home series VISTA does not include Fax & Scan so
the installer is looking for something that is not there.

Since I've seen references to a similar problem and Image Zone which is
part of the HP package, try uninstalling everything HP you can see in
Remove Programs and deleting any HP icon there may be in the Printers
folder after unplugging the USB cable from the PC end.

Then reboot, download the simplified package:

HP Photosmart Basic Drivers
HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One


p-52292-3&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=3204785&os=2093&lang= en

Make sure you use Download Only and Save, not Run when the choices
appear.

Note where you saved the file to and install that -- do not plug the
USB cable from the AIO to the PC until the install procedure tells you
to or until you get to [Finish].

Good luck.
