Art,

The NEC Firewarden IEEE 1394 Host Controller driver for the Nikon-supplied
Firewire card is in Win98SE or on the Win98SE CD which it asks for during
installation. You also need a file from the NikonScan 3 CD, which is called
something like 242975USA8.exe. This is all detailed in the Nikon 4000ED
Users Manual (Appendix 1).

You also have to go through a special routine before switching-off the
scanner.

That's good news, was there a special driver that Nikon included.  I
think I read somewhere that the secret was getting that patch or driver,
and that it was a part of either WIN 2000 or XP that could be added to
WIN 98SE (I said 2 before, but that was an error)... Do you know
anything about that?
