I need to call them to be sure there is no workaround, but my experience with these kinds of problems is that you are on your own......No one wants to help debug an OS issue.... You forgot to mention.... blunt and PAINFUL! I tried to remove And re-install the Nikon SW, including the driver...... No luck. I just hate lose all the time it takes to do this right! An OS Re-do is a big task..... Physically Replacing the HDD is the easy part....... OTOH, a fresh OS is a big performance boost...... Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net Frank that is the blunt instrument approach but will likely work. Spend a few minutes on Google first.

Thanks.... that is what I thought..... So somewhere, I have some form of contaminated/broken driver.... I think I will have no choice but to reinstall WIN XP and start over...... It has been a year since my last OS re-do, so maybe I am overdue anyway...... Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net I know for sure that XP can handle multiple scanners, including a Nikon and an Epson flatbed since that's what I have....

The other installed SW is for an Epson V700 scanner.......and Epson Scan SW...... And Vuescan. It just acts like a driver problem..... This stuff was all working before, and something "broke".
