Start/Control Panel/Hardware & Sound - there you'll find one entry for
Printer and another for Scanners & Cameras.
If you go to the actual item you can right-click and create a shortcut.

Isn't there a button on the scanner to do that? If the software is
installed properly isn't there a menu item under HP for HP Director? How
about opening something like a photo editing application and choosing to
scan that way?

I presume you mean in VISTA not in the XP you refer to for comparison?

What version of VISTA? The home versions do not have Fax & Scan so you
have to do it from the applications installed for the scanner, or other
applications that pick up a Scan or Capture entry in their menus.

Those buttons are among the things that may not work in VISTA even when
other features do.....
