[filmscanners] Re: Nikon 8000 Win 2000 problems

>>I had a bitch of a time installing my Nikon 8000 on a Windows 2000
Professional single user machine.  You MUST log on as Administrator.  I have
administrator privileges (single user machine) as default user, but it did
not work when I used my own login.  You have to log off, log on as
Administrator, install the Nikon 8000 software and update the registry
(automagically) and then voila! the sucker works.

I made darn sure not to put a password on the 'Administrator' account so I
could log on again if necessary.<<

All I had to do was install the firewire card. The system recognized the
card and automatically installed the drivers, and I did not need to log on
as Administrator.


>> Any one know what happens if I try to install the firewire 8000 with
Windows
XP Professional?  I am still using W2000 Professional out of driver conflict
anxiety.<<

The latest version of Nikonscan is XP compatible.


>>Anybody know how to make the doggone tools palette stay open?<<

Reduce the size of the preview window and put the tools just past the right
edge. Or, if you have a dual monitor setup you can drag them onto the second
monitor.
