Carl's advice on drivers is well taken and will also sometimes work "in the 
other direction."

When XP first came out I was using a HP Scanjet 5p scanner that had been with 
me for several years. Wouldn't work with XP due to lack of driver and HP no 
longer supported it. Someone here on the list suggested trying Win 2000 
drivers, SCSI card and scanner itself, and it worked fine.

Still have that scanner, although I mostly use another one now with 
slide/negative capability...

Windows 2000, XP and 2003 are all members of the NT family.

NT 4.0 = Windows NT 4
NT 5.0 = Windows 2000
NT 5.1 = Windows XP
NT 5.2 = Windows 2003

It's worth the try to use an XP-certified driver on Windows 2000 or 2003
when you can't get a driver that's certified for those other versions of NT.
Quite often they will work just fine.
