I couldn't run this software until I removed the other Nikon scan software that was installed. Then everything worked fine.

Thanks for the info. Link updated. Nikon is constantly changing the software link as I just updated it in July. This was after updating it a few times prior to that.

BTW what "other Nikon scan software" are you referring to. As stated in the link it needs to be version 4.0.3.

I had installed Nikon Scan 3.1.3 when I first tried to connect up the scanner. The presence of that software wouldn't let 4.0.3 be installed. The error I got was vague, but I finally realized the issue and all went smoothly after that.
