I'm using one of that series and it works just fine with xp. I discovered that one of my usb ports was dead. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Weddle" <ddweddle@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, May 08, 2004 12:57 PM Subject: Re: scanner with JAWS Hi, Vicki: When we went from NT to XP at work, all the scanners in the office stopped working. I'm the only blind person there, so I guess I yelled the loudest and longest. Somehow our system administrator found an HP driver that was supposed to work with XP, but it didn't. Finally the system administrator took a flyer and tried going from a USB connection back to a SCSI connection and guess what--it worked! Now HP Precisionscan (or whatever the HP scanner program at work is called) works just fine. Not much on specifics, but I hope this lead helps. Take care...

My OS is XP Home on my desktop and XP Pro on my laptop. Is there a scanner that works best with JAWS and XP? I'm currently using HP 5200C, and there are no updated drivers for XP. Thanks.
