Re Polaroid SprintScan 4000 Installation Problem: Windows XP
Re below....never mind. Word to the wise...I was attempting to install
the pre-Windows XP compliant version of 5.5.1....which does not create the necessary 'SprintScan Drivers' folder under the c:/root..... ================================== Hi folks, hopefully someone has the answer to this problem which is baffling the heck of of me. Running Windows XP Professional, initially without ASPI installed (but I've now installed the latest Adaptec build, and verified that the installation was successful, as part of the debugging process). Polacolor Insight 5.5.1 installation seems to work fine. I reboot and Windows finds the scanner at the end of a short SCSI chain (a Zip drive and Microtek scanner, also on the chain but with different IDs, work fine by the way) and then Windows prompts me for the driver location to complete the hardware installation. For the life of me I cannot find where it is. I've tried both the Polaroid directories created under c/program files and c/program files/common files, along with the one created under c/windows/twain32, but Windows claims there's no driver file there. Polaroid's website is no help; the Polacolor Insight readme PDF claims there's a 'SprintScan Drivers' folder somewhere (it doesn't exist) and part of the site is down at the moment. Help!
