Acer S2W 3300U Scanner problem

    Hello!
    I wonder if someone could help me with the following problem:
    I just recently switched computers and went from Windows Millennium to Windows XP. I had no problems reusing my printer and Smart Media Card Reader but I'm having a heck of a time recuperating my scanner!
    I have unistalled and re-installed it several times using the original MiraCD 90.S0805.406 but I keep getting a ' Cannot find Scanner ' message.
    All connections were checked carefully but to no avail!
    Does anyone have any suggestions please, I would really appreciate it.
    Thank you in advance for your attention and eventual assistance.
    Regards,
    Jacques

    All the stuff I can find leads me to believe that that scanner is not compatible w/Windows XP :(. Maybe you can find some custom driver or something.

    Welcome to TechSpot!!! ;) :wave:

    Thank you Kitty,
    My ' savior driver 'quest starts today and with some luck I'll be able to retrieve my beloved (?) MiraScan!
    Happy Holidays!
