[filmscanners] RE: Problems With SS4000

["Thomas B. Maugham" <tmaugham@yahoo.com>]

I'm using my SS4000 (SCSI) on W98SE with VueScan and have no problems.  I
strongly recommend VueScan and suggest you use it and d/l the ASPI drivers
as suggested.

Good luck!

Tom

Hi Bob,
Did you load the ASPI drivers necessary for this application? It can be had
at www.hamrick.com
Secondly, I would download Version 5.5 of the Polaroid software as it is
much improved over the 4.5 you have.
Lastly, try Ed Hamrick's version 7.5.37 and with all the new features I
think after you do, you may toss the other two out. Beware the 7.5.37 needs
ASPI also.
Hope this helps,
Owen

Tom and All,

I am running W2k. My scanner is the SS4000, not SS4000 Plus. The SCSI card
is the one coming with the scanner. I believe it's an Adaptec 2940 or
something. No other SCSI devices are connected to the card. Termination
should be ok as I have used the same setup on a different computer.

If I can't solve the problem I think I will setup the scanner on my old
PIII. It has only 384MB memory and 40GB HD but that is good enough for
scanning. Then I'll just transfer the files on my just installed 100Mbit
LAN. Kind of cumbersom but I guess it should work out... Anyway, if you have
suggestions to solve my problem I would be happy.

Robert
