Lexmark1000

fifibobo

Anyone know if there will ever be a driver (hacked or other) for the Lexmark1000? W2k says its there, but, alas, no drivers can be found anywhere. Saw it was the most requested driver from Lexmark, so maybe.

Aiptek Hyperpen: works with Win2k???

Lyonardo

I have the Hyperpen 5000, Win2K Pro detects it automatically as a standard serial mouse, but the cursor jumps around like crazy when I try to use it. I tried loading the latest NT drivers, but they just hang my system during boot.

Adaptec SCSI cards & running HP 5p scanner

turchino

So, I know that Hp 5p won't work with the default supplied Symbios ISA Scsi, and I know that the better way to make it work is buying an Adapted SCSI card, but my question is which model? Is 2904 or 2904CD is compatible with w2k and 5p? 2910c is very expensive.
