That's (one of) the beauties of SCSI scanners, especially compared to parallel-port ones. Another is the speed. I've helped several people in the past pick out SCSI scanners, and no-one was dissapointed with them. I myself only have a cheapo Acer parallel-port one though, an upgrade wouldn't hurt.Originally posted by: emeraldsky
Don't know if this will help or not, but my scanner (Microtek Scanmaker X6EL) works in WinXP although I don't have manufacturer support for it. It connects to an Adaptec SCSII card.
You just use the "Acquire" function from within whatever software you have. I usually use a copier program, but it also works with OCR software and with graphics software. Maybe it's the SCSII card that makes the scanner visible on my system, but maybe XP will also see a scanner on the parallel port.
No, "compatibility mode" only works for user-mode applications, not drivers, which are system-level components and generally have totally difference architectures between Win9x and NT.Originally posted by: funboy42
And under Compatibility mode you can make it run under dos, 95, 98se, 2000, or nt
Wouldnt that work?
I know it does for some old games I have that give me a stupid cant run on blah blah so wouldnt that be the same for the driver?
