Scanner problems with xp+sp2

I have a Vuego/Acer 310P scanner which worked perfectly with win 95.98se, but will not work with xp+sp2!
Can't find correct driver if it exists!
Any help welcome.

 

Remember, Acer is made by Toshiba, so look there for a new driver or buy a new compatible one (today are cheap)...

 

Many fo the older scanners aren't supported by winXP. I had similar issues with my canon scanjet.
Try www.driverguide.com.
Nevre mind I tried it for you, go to this page http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=81983 this is a winXP driver for your scanner.
You will need to register to download it. (rego is free)

 

Thanks, but have already tried it! as am registered with Driverguide and numerous others of the same ilk, but just to fill you in on the history of this scanner. I've had this scanner for a few years and had it running happily on one of my PC's with win98se.
However, when I changed to a new PC with xp+sp2 some months ago, I tried installing it, with no luck, so I left it sit, until I recently had need of a scanner and tried again with same negative result.
I was initially using Mirascan software from the original cd , but then tried the latest Acer software which I downloaded from their site which was supposed to work with xp but not for me.
I have followed all the installation instructions to the letter, and appear to have it fully installed in that it shows up in device manager! and when I open it up in adobe photoshop, the scanner window opens up on screen, the message comes up "waiting for scanner to warm up", but when I press preview or scan, the buttons gray out as if something is happening, and the scanner makes sounds and lights up as if to scan, but nothing happens for 30 seconds then a message appears "Read image failure; Restart scanner; code {fff;oo64} I unistalled and reinstalled too many times! but can get no joy of it, so any tips will be welcome.
I've also checked on all the scanner program forums, and found numerous queries re the same problem of running a parrallel scanner with xp, and have followed up on drivers which worked for some , but not for me!!.

 

Thanks for all who tried to help, but I've solved my problem by buying a scanner which connects through USB and it wored first time!
