HEllo.
Just upgraded to XP and my UMAX Astra 2010u does not work. Actually windows found it, installed the drivers for it and all. Then I had to install VistaScan - the utility used to scan images - it could find the scanner (even though it is supposed to work under Win 2000). Any suggestions?

Thank you!

I'd try the Umax web site. I believe that's an older scanner and Umax is not known for updating their drivers for their older products. You might wait to see if they release XP drivers but I wouldn't hold your breath.

btw I have the 3400 and am waiting to see if XP will support it. Upgrading OSes is ALWAYS a PITA.
