Scanners are now so cheap and high quality
that it is scarcely worth bothering with the old one. Chris From:
owner- I'm trying to make Windows Vista (64 Bit!) cooperate with my Minolta
Dimage Scan Dual IV scanner. All attempts to do this with the driver CD failed. Updating to a newer
driver is no option: Minolta has sold the complete photo business and Sony
obviously is not interested in supporting old Minolta products. I succeded in getting a few test scans done using the trial version of
Vuescan, but the programme crashed a couple of times, so I'm somewhat reluctant
to actually buy it. The trial version watermarks all scans, so it's not real fun to do
scans that I'll have to throw away anyway. What are other people's experiences here? Is Vuescan worth the money,
are there any known problems (or even better: solutions) with Do you know of any good alternatives (apart from buying a new
scanner, of course). Laurenz |
