XP mode and scanner MUSTEK 1200USB

Hi,

I have old scanner MUSTEK 1200 USB Plus which have not driver for Win7.
Therefore I try use virtual PC, VMware and XPmode from MS.
I cannot install my scanner in XP mode.
I connected USB scanner to virtual maschine, installed driver for scanner but scanner cannt find driver and dont running.
Why?
Can everybody help me?

Thanks

The MUSTEK 1200 USB Plus works well on Vista & Win 7.

Plays up on Win XP.

download latest driver which is not available via normal support page ftp://ftp.mustek.com.tw/pub/driver/1.../98-XP/12LV20/

..you just have to pause during installation when the "language choose menu" appear. Connect your scanner and the windows would do the rest

Note: if you've attempt to install it before. Go to "Device Manager" and uninstall troubleshooted hardware..which is your scanner then disconnect it and then reconnect it again

Hi,

are you sure that it is driver for W7 64-bit? Description is for 98-XP.

Also I have problem with download this files, its very slowly and after any minutes is download disconnected.

Do you have the driver CD? if No. Try here:
1200 UB Plus

@potretma look all I know is that it works..because the driver is originally a file no more than a Mega byte be it any device..the reason the driver download is bigger is the interface UI

So all you really do in our little case here is that you trick the installer which won't continue anyway..

Wait a second why do all that? when you could download the driver directly -which I got it from the "Temp<Windows" Folder..

1- download attachment "Mustek 1200 UB Plus Driver.zip" > extract it to "Mustek 1200 UB Plus Driver" at desktop

2- click "Start" > type "Device Manager" > click "Enter" > from the menu bar choose "Action" and click "Scan for hardware changes" > right click "Unknown device" > click "Update Driver Software" > choose "Browse my computer for driver software" > browse to "Mustek 1200 UB Plus Driver" on desktop > click "Next"

3- Enjoy XD

Hi,

I`m sorry, I answered wrongly. This thread is for scanner and WinXP mode.
It`s work fine for long time.
I thought that it`s driver for Win7 64-bit, which still missing me.

Thanks for your help.
Best regards
