SCANNER PROBLEM: Minolta Dual scan III and native software
DESCRIPTION: I have been scanning some old film for a while. Suddenly today the software DS Dual 3 stopped working.
ENVIRONMENT: I am running Windows Vista and Norton (it happened shortly after an update of Norton that required a re-boot) - it did work for a while though after re-booting.
ERROR MESSAGE: I get the error message: "DS Dual3 (32 bit) stopped working".
HAVE TRIED:
1) I can still reach the scanner through the Minolta "easy" software option, but would prefer to use the advanced software I already know.
2) There is also a connection through Vuescan (evaluation).
3) I have tried removing and re-installing the software to no avail. Twice.
4) Pleading, offering bribes and other acts of self-humilition have not worked either... Threatening to buy a Mac had no effect either.
5) Oh, and yes, I have tried to use the Windows error report facility :bang:
Has anybody experienced similar problems and perhaps have some ideas (apart from buying Vuescan).
Thanks in advance
Xpanded - or should that be Xscanded...
