Vista Drivers for Visioneer Strobe XP 300
Monday, July 31, 2006
I downloaded the latest drivers from Visioneer that they have posted on their website but they won't install (XP300.406612). Anyone have any hints?
I tried to use the Vista "find your driver" tool but that didn't turn up anything either.
More searching ...
Yes, install the original drivers in XP SP2 compatibility mode. Manually locate the .inf file that is installed and then update your driver in Control Panel.

Robert ... I have not been able to get Trevor's suggestion to work for me. I have tried to contact him without any response back to me. I'm going to wait for official drivers at this time. Thanks for the comment! - Steve

It does work. Download the driver and save to a known location. Scroll down to SP2 version before installing. Disconect the scanner and reconnect and driver should install as new hardware. The scanner box still shows question marks but ignore these.
Good luck.

This situation should be solved now.
