ok ive sussed mine has windows xp, the scanner is for windows 98/2000 ..

its not gonna work is it :sad:

 

There are a few flat-bed scanners (pre win 2000) that wont work with XP, in fact, they like to crash it. Click the link that FB (Flying Banana) posted and type in the make and model of the scanner. That is a very good site, so if the drivers aren't there, you wont have much luck.

 

Best of luck :thumbsup:

I have an Agfa scanner that I bought with my Windows Me laptop, it'd crash all the time when I hooked it up to my XP PC
