    Oliver:
    Thanks for your quick reply. The scanner worked well in Windows 95. The only
    new thing to the scanner is the Adaptec 2904 SCSI card that it is hooked up
    too. This is also new to the system. The hardware list in hardware drake shows
    the card as a AIC 7850, which I have been told is correct for the card.

    As for looking at the files, that is beyond my knowledge level, I have no idea
    what I am looking for. So any further enlightenment you can shed would be
    apprecieated. I have also asked Civilme from the Mandrake expert list to help
    also.
