Daniel Colombi's note: " I found a way to install HP5100c on XP. First download the driver for HP5200c (more)" THIS was the fix i needed. use 662en and then 660mu as he describes. detatch/load662/turn off/attach/on (load to crash.. this is unnerving and where i was always stopped short before) /turn or keep off/detach/load the 660mu file/turn off/atta

"driver works, (sort-of), with Windows XP home. But still won't shut off scaner as computer is shut down. and won't send to printer. I think it's time for a new scanner."

"Somewhere on the HP Website there is a seperate download folder for the

4200C scanner that allows it to work with WindowsXP Professionl Ed. I'm

curious to know whether any one has tried to download a WindowsXP driver for the 4100C, which is suppose to be a cousin of the 4200C LT???"

"fatal error, setup is unable to continue. The best solution is to throw away the 4200c (smash it first so some othe sucker doesn't go through the same pain) and don't buy any more hp products..."

"Worked well with the 36 mb file (sj655en.exe), HP software for Scanjet. This file was mentioned earlier by previous users. Thanks."

"Driver downloaded with no problem at all...works great"

"Do not use the small half mb drive file. You need to try the packaged 36 mb file (sj655en.exe). I installs the HP scanning software on XP. Worked well for me after failed attempts to use the XP supplied interface."

"This did not work for me on my new Sony laptop using Windows XP. All updates from MS already installed. Scanner was not recognized, did not respond, and was not usable. This is the same file from the HP site (same size and name). If anyone gets a usable driver/update please contact me."

"The installation worked for me. It gave me the XP warning that the driver was not tested however, you can continue the install. During the install you should hear the scanner. After reboot, scanner worked normally."

"Fatal Error my butt...it's planned obsolescense from HP. They could write a working driver if they cared. Bottom line...sell new scanners."

"does not work..... fatal error win xp would not allow to install"

"Again I spoke to quickly. I was able to run setup but I get Scanner not Started error or XP is preventing device from starting because it will render system unstable."

"Does not work. Fatal Error on Set up."
