scanner driver installation

[Guest]

I have not been able to install my old Epson Perfection 610 scanner on my HP
a832n computer. My OS is xp home edition. I was able to install my Epson
printer. I did notice the upgrade driver for the printer had a setup.exe
file. The upgrade driver for the scanner has a setup.inx file. Windows xp
refuses to recognize the setup.inx file. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated. Thank you.

epson. The problem seems to be the setup file has an inx extension which
windows xp doesn't recognize. A dialog box told me to find out which program
created the file. This turned out to be acl for windows index. This is not

You cannot install this driver by running a setup program. You have to
use the plug and play capabilities of the operating system. Read the
instructions.
