I've been trying to get my old, good Visioneer 8920 Scanner to work
(XPHome/SP3) and tried some suggestions from a scanner newsgroup without
success.
I *wrote* to Visioneer (no other way to communicate with them about a
non-current product) and actually got an e-mail answer, reading, in part:
"We just received your letter in the office today. I am sorry to hear
about the problems you have been having. I regret to inform you, your
Visioneer 8920 Scanner is not compatible w/ your operating system. The
last driver that was available for this unit was Windows XP, Service
Pack 1. It appears you are on Service Pack 3."
It's a nice machine, handles slides, and I hate to junk it for a newer
model. So I'm thinking of taking one of my backup clones and
uninstalling SP3 and SP2 and using it only for the scanner. Is this
asking for a can of worms? Is there a KB article maybe for doing it in
straightforward manner?
