I am getting ready to buy a scanner, but I want it to work in win2k with the USB interface. After reading reviews, it seems to best scanners are Epson and HP. I have seen in the forum that HP isn't planning on making win2k drivers.

I just get my hands on a product called Cable-Projector. No drivers or spec os is needed, install just plug it on you're graphic card and it will work. Tv-Out on every graphic card and in any os, PC/MAC support.

UT and 3.69 one more time

MoneyMark
Ok so far I have tried 3. 66 and 3. 68 and could not get D3D or AGP to be detected. Now I have 3. 69 and it crashes everytime I run UT. I followed the link to the new 3d3ddrv. dll file, put it in the system folder for UT and it still crashes.

Sound not working even though there are no conflicts

Minion
I am using an I/O Magicwave PCI soundcard (I believe this uses that Aureal Vortex 1 chip). The drivers are installed and device manager shows no conflicts. Yet, I don't get any sound. It was working fine just an hour before when I was still on Windows 98, and I didn't mess with the speakers or anything.

I hate companies that make scanners!!

Bong^man
What is the deal with scanner manufacturers?? I've been looking at midrange scanners (i. e. HP4200cxi, Epson 636u) And both companies are NOT supporting win2k. Epson will support about every scanner but the 636u, and HP isn't supporting hardly any scanners.
