How to fix your Magic Jack if it doesn't work on your computer

MY MAGIC JACK 

So, I finally purchased my magic Jack at Walmart for $39.95 plus tax.  The "As You Seen On TV" products states that you can  have a phone service for $19.95 per year by simply plugging this USB device to your computer and plug in any of your home phone to the device and wala!!! You Have a Home Phone Service.  And so I did, I plugged it to my computer and plugged my home phone but nothing happened.

As I was about to return it, I decided to test it to my new Toshiba Laptop with Vista Operating system and it works just find.  But I use my HP computer with Windows XP operating system and it just freezes my computer.  So I just decided to use my Toshiba Laptop to use my Magic Jack.  But I'm always using my HP Laptop and I had to find a way to make it work.

I visited the www.magicjack.com to see if I can call a representative or tech but there was no number listed.  You would think a phone company or a company who offers phone service would have a phone line with technical service representative.  And NOPE, no phone reps.  But they do have a chat with a rep.  And the Rep was actually helpful and gave me the following steps to fix my issue.
