I haven't tried to fix it but consider this a directive to finally get the Imacon scanner up and running. I turned it on and it lights up! I have a SCSI to Firewire adapter and it all hooks up fine. ( Thank you, Doug!) The problem is that the Windows XP laptop that I had intended to hook up to the scanner (I read that it does not work with any newer version of Windows) has no port for the Firewire. It has 4 USB ports, one called 1394. one round one and two square ones but nothing that looks like the Firewire plug. Is there an adapter I need to get? I've searched but I'm not sure what I'm sure for. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I wish photography did not involve computers.
