re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE Friday, September 30, 2005 at 7:53 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by FireWorks (1 messages posted) I just got my Dexxa 4800 running on XP Pro. 1) Install the Artec AS6E drivers. It's the same hardware, just a different brand. http://www.artecusa.com/parallel-scanner-driver.html 1.a) If the installer doesn't work, you might have to extract the files to a floppy disk and install from there. If that doesn't work either, then you have to jump through some hoops, for which you'll need some basic familiarity around your computer (I'm not going into gritty details--get someone to help if you don't understand). Extract the files to a temporary folder. Run "cmd" and go to the DRIVER folder. Type: expand AS6EIO.SY_ C:\windows\system32\drivers\AS6EIO.SYS mkdir C:\windows\twain_32 mkdir C:\windows\twain_32\AS6E expand AS3E32.DL_ C:\WINDOWS\twain_32\AS6E\AS3E32.DLL expand AS6E32.DS_ C:\WINDOWS\twain_32\AS6E\AS6E32.DS expand AS6E32.EX_ C:\WINDOWS\twain_32\AS6E\AS6E32.EXE copy ..\help\as6e32.chm C:\windows\twain_32\as6e\as6e32.hlp expand as6e32.in_ C:\windows\as6e32.ini expand supmini.in_ C:\windows\supmini.ini 2) Go to C:\windows\twain_32\as6e 3) Right click as6e32.exe, go to the Compatibility tab, and enable "Windows 95" compatibility. 4) Make sure that your BIOS has your parallel port set to "EPP". (The program suggests "Normal" or "EPP", but I found normal didn't work.) 5) Run as6e32.exe, and your scanner should be happy and working.
