Can't install any printer, used to work

Hi,

I'm using vista ultimate x64, and no matter what printer i try to add,
whether it be local port or network, or different brands of printers,
none work and all come up with the 0x000005b3 error: this operation
cannot be completed. I started having this problem after I had a power
outage, but since then i have done sfc and chkdsk and fixed everything,
except for this one problem. I really don't want to reinstall windows
just to fix this problem, so if anyone has a solution, please tell me.
