Hello! Its been a while since I´ve been around... we moved house and where we are now there is no broadband. Dial up connections are so slow I have had to put all my groups on hold. But I do have a question I am hoping someone can help with. I have a HP Scanjet 3500c which I have not installed since I lived in England (now I live in Brazil) in 2004, with Windows 2K. I now have Win XP Pro on my machine, and cannot get the computer to recognise the scanner. First it asked for the MS VM (I had JavaSun Runtime Environment) to complete installation, so I searched around for MSVM, found the 2 needed, but although the scanner software installed correctly, the computer still does not "find" the scanner. I´ve tried everything the Hewlett Packard website suggests but nothing seems to work... I think I will have to try installing it on another computer... But my question is: can I have MS Virtual Machine and Sun Java Runtime Environment running together on my computer? I ask that because now I have some programs complaining that I need Java Sun to run them... I haven´t had MS VM since Win 98! If anybody also has suggestions for my scanner problem, I´d love to hear them :o)) Regards, Lil -- <Please delete this line and everything below.> To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/
