Umax 2100 U + XP 2781 ?

I used to get my scanner working with all other build. but with this 2781 build the system keeps recognizing the scanner itself and won't let the UMAX drivers work ! Please help.

That's weird. I have a 2000U, which is a bit older than the one you have, and it worked fine in 2465 and now in 2481. I haven't tried any other builds, but it could be something MS was tweaking so it lost functionality in that build. Like Remote Desktop in 2465.
 
In any case, I just installed the OS, plugged in the scanner, and bam, it worked. I never could get it to work right in Win2K (although it worked fine in 9x and Me).

But you did use the Umax drivers?

The XP build in scanner wizard works fine too, but it blocks off the Umax drivers which are needed in order to use TWAIN.

No.... I just went with what it came with, and it works fine in PhotoShop using Twain import.
