I tied attaching it to my wife win7 only machine and nothing happens.
Like I said...it appears to be did Jim :)
Bad luck. Thinking about it, our scanner is fifteen years old, so if
yours is similar, that's not too bad. Might be worth opening it up to
see if a connector has fallen off.
One thing it isn't is fast, as it's USB-powered, and I did look into
getting a quicker one a few years ago. But everyone has all-in-one
printers nowadays, and the remaining scanners are mostly somewhat
specialised and quite expensive.
