Scanner drivers...
So we see the result when I setup a new PC for a relative, with XP on it and with new hardware for some things, but also with _old_ hardware for others - printing for instance, or when I moved one of our machines (the one with the HP scanner attached to it as it happens, and scanner software) from W98 to W2k.
In each case the current drivers had to be sought on the Internet, and downloaded and installed, before the system was remotely satisfactory.
Two years ago HP made US$ 2 000 000 from Open Source operations. THey are unlikely to ignore that or anything that is _commercially_ associated with it.Criticising what's probably the world's leading manufacturer on printers/scanners (HP) for not doing something is going to be ignored.
