    The Prisa 310s is a SCSI unit, but if I remember correctly it uses the old 25-pin connection like a printer port. I believe with an appropriate adaptor it will connect to a more modern SCSI card. But considering the modest performance and uncertain WinXP compatability of the unit, it might be better to get one of the economical USB scanners now available (eg Canon) at not much more cost than a SCSI card, and pass the 310 on with the old computer or try to find someone who wants an ISA SCSI scanner...
