Posted October 5, 200816 yr For those of you who have USB scanners that Vista has reported to be incompatible, do the following. 1- Make sure you have your scanner installation CD 2- Unplug the USB lead from the scanner to the computer. 3- Restart Vista 4- Plug in the USB cable for the scanner to your computer. 5- Vista will state "new hardware found, searching for drivers" let this finish, you will then be prompted for your driver software disc 6- Insert CD and click on next, Vista will install your scanner and it will work fine in the Vista Camera and scanner wizard. 7- Please note, if your scanner came with software such as "panel" etc, this will not work. However, at least you can use your so called obsolete scanner. Vangellis MCP,MCTS,MCPD,MCIPT,MCA,MCSE,MCSD,MCDBA
