Re[2]: [APML] OT: WindowsXP and SprintScan 4000

[Matt Thomas <m-e-thomas@home.com>]

Joseph,

  Actually, I upgraded recently (mainly because of problems with Win98
  crashing) and everything on my two-to-three year old machine is
  working fine.  The only thing that didn't have manufactures drivers
  yet is my cheep-o Umax flatbed scanner, but WinXP had simple built
  in drivers that make it somewhat usable until Umax comes out with
  their own.

  See my previous post about the SS4000.  You can also install the
  ASPI drivers and that will also solve the problem.  This was
  necessary for me since I primarily use VueScan.  The ASPI drivers
  can even be downloaded from Ed Hamrick's web page (www.hamrick.com).
