I lost my capability to scan using MS Paint when I had my PC cleaned for viruses. Does anyone have a solution for this problem? I'm using an HP all-in-one printer that is not compatable to Vista but like I said it was working great using MS Paint until I had the PC cleaned.

Hi,

First look to see if it is listed in the control panel Scanners & cameras section. If not, try to add it there, failing that yes you have nothing to loose. OK?

It's not listed in the Control Panel Scanner and Camera. Do you know if I can follow the installation Wizard and add it using the disk?

Hi,

I am downloading the set-up files & will point you further but for now, look for a .inf Set-up file which points to the drivers for your scanner.

OK?

Hi,

The file you are looking for is hpounp02.inf

This will add the driver files needed for the scanner to work. OK?

OK,

Please just remove the software & run the set-up file again!

Hi,

The version I have downloaded (Link above) has this file (hposcu01.inf) for the scanner software. On saying that, if you have a later version, I would follow my last advice. "Remove & re-install the software" OK?

Yes definately. Never ! install MS drivers for third party devices, they are too troublesome.

I must have a different version, mine are *09.inf files. I'm going to remove and re-install. Thanks so much for all your help.
