Hello dear fellows,
I have a acer scanprisa 640p scanner. I tried it installing on windows xp and 98. i was able to install them and in device manager its status was that it is working fine. when i run mirascan it first detects scanner and on detecting it crashes with error message like interface is not correct etc. any help will be highly appreciated

driver update here (http://www.benq.com/drivers/imaging_drivers.html#flatbed)
p I think stands for parallel.... in the bios what do you have the printer port (lpt) set to?
follow this advice from acer (http://12.145.38.148/support/faqDetail.asp?CATEGORY_ID=240000041#F240000060)
but install version 3.424 of mirascan (http://www.benq.com/ss_download/drivers/imaging/mirascan_v3424p.exe)

actually the scanner i was trying to install was acer scanprisa 640p, now it is connected to LPT port, my system is pentium III d815eea2 mother board. In the guide on site, it is written i should find eppscsi minport driver in scsi controllers in device manger but i don't. actually i was trying to figure out why is this so.

The advice is for ALL scanners, read to the bottom and it mentions parallel port scanners. Just ignore the scsi bits.

Is link to Acer advice still valid? I can't connect.
I need this (and any other) advice very badly.
My computer AMD233, 64MB RAM, with W98 can't detect ScanPrisa 640p.
LPT was out of order so I put in PCI-to-LPT extension. Printer connected via scaner works nice on this extension.
Scaner at all. I also tried to detect scaner with MDK9.1. No success.
Any help highly appreciated.
