Re boot the computer with ,( wired or wireless printer?), the printer cable in the USB port in the laptop/desktop, the windows version you have will ID the device and try to load a driver, or Go to printer in the start menu and ADD a PRINTER the software will search for the attached printer. OR use the software that came with the printer, load into the Dell and follow the instructions.
When you get that dialog box - Isnt there a button that says "Continue Anyway"?
Or something like "Do you want to Continue anyway?"
If you get either of these options, then hit "yes, continue anyway"
Set your new HL-2140 as the default printer. Go to Control Panel, Click Printers and Scanners tab, and set your Brother HL-2140 as your default printer. You may have other printer as the default printer currently. Check your connections again. Connect it to another USB port as the current port might not be responding due to connection contact problem.
uninstall the driver, disconnect printer, restart pc. start CD installation *DON'T CONNECT THE PRINTER till it ask for it. When
it report error for missing file, go to browse then locate on CD

Please use this link to download the drivers of your printer. First select the OS you are using(vista,xp or any other). Then select the language and then download the drivers for your printer.
Windows 98 is not compatible with this unit. I could not find info that
it was compatible. I went as far to contact brother directly and they
gave me the same info, it is not compatible. There are rarely any new
units that you can find that are compatible with windows 98. My
suggestion would be to upgrade to windows xp or vista. Tiger Direct has
great prices for windows OEM versions, service pack 2 is going for 90
bucks. They are a reputable store/online warehouse. They always deliver
on time and i never had damages. Let me know if you need more info
