it also worked before with xp.It came with her computer
(xp)and worked fine but she had her computer reformatted
and she could not get the scanner to work after that.The
twain driver cd only says win98/me/2000.it is a memorex
flatbed scanner.The driver cd says Super Slim CCD

Did you look at Memorex's web site for a driver? Do any of the ones at
http://www.memorex.com/service_suppo...hp?id=131&dl=p
match the one your female friend has? Did she (or you) check for
hardware *and* software compatibility BEFORE migrating to a new
operating system? My aunt had a Umax Vista S12 that worked great on
Windows 98 but they provided no driver for Windows 2000/XP and the
Windows-included drivers didn't work. So she had to get a new scanner
for the Windows 2000 host (now running Windows XP). She didn't check
for compatibility before the migration, either, but scanners can be had
for under $100 so she got another one that was supported on her
platform.
