Well,my brother bought a full length scanner like,yesterday I think and showed me some pictures he scanned.He told me I could use it and guess what?It tells me it can't read the sofeware.

Well,I put the sofeware disk in and re-check to make sure there wasn't any problems with the install process(told the disk to check for errors)When I hit the scan button it shows the scan screen then after awhile the same error pops up"cannot find sofeware blah blah blah"

So then I unplug the scanner,un-installed the sofeware just basiclly remove everything that the scanner came with.I read the book on how to install the scanner and here are the steps I took upon doing so.

1) I put in the software and in-stalled the info.

2) I went step-by-step to plugging up the scanner.

3) After putting in the plug for the scanner Windows said it was identifying new hardware which it just found.

4) I go to scan a picture and guess what?Same error.

My brother was able to scan in 4 pictures the first time he plugged it in but as soon as I try I keep getting error messages.If anyone can help it would be appreciated.I wanna get some PSO art up >.>

I sorta sorted out the problem.My brother bought a windows XP today and for some larger than life reason it works fine on the new computer.Im using the windows 98 in my room now.Hmmm,someday i'll figure this computer out >.>

....My little brother looks like he was going to cry when I called for this computer to be in my room...Mabey i'll be a little nicer to him whenever he asks for my account password to go online -_-;;

Argh,this computer is just TOO boot-legged.There is something always loading an making a loud noise whenever I try to go to a site x.X,after playing around with the new computer I almost want to throw this computer off the roof or something...but it's still good for the mp3's http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif
