Scanners supported in Microsoft Windows Vista or Windows 7

I have a HP Scanjet 5370c running on my desktop PC with Windows XP and am planning to upgrade to Windows 7 by releasing.  However, when the software running Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor Beta to determine the compatibility of the system, the report indicates that the 5370 Scanjet is not compatible with Windows 7.  Further investigation on the HP Web site titled "Supported in Microsoft Windows Vista Scanners" page, it seems that my scanner is not supported on Vista either.  Does this mean that my scanner which works great under XP has been made obsolete due to lack of a driver which runs under Vista or Windows 7?  I like the Scanjet 5370c better than most scanners newest I've seen, it seems a shame to throw the right equipment for lack of support drivers.

I understand your point of view, and it's a good thing.  BUT it can cost the sale of new scanners.

The Scanjet 400, for example, was a very popular scanner.  Do not update for Vista, HP turned its back to a large number of its customers.

When I buy a scanner to work with Windows 7, guess what?  Because of the behavior of HP, I'll be that much less likely to buy a HP one.

I'm probably not the only one to see things this way.

  • Support for Microsoft Windows Server 2003

    Hello

    Can you please let me know the end of support for Windows Server 2003?

    I manage and application that is currently running on Windows Server 2003 and will soon migrate to Windows Server 2012 but the exact date is not decided, as a lot of analysis should be done prior to the actual migration.

    Please let me know when Microsoft end this support for their Windows Server 2003 so that I can work on that accordingly.

    That would be really helpful. Any announcement already made by Microsoft on this? I found a few things online stating it would be 2015, but nothing seems to have come directly from Microsoft.

    Thank you in advance for the information.

    No!
    It's a scam and with all the names and phone numbers, one who has
    become very frequent lately. See

    In addition to their money get on your part to do anything of any value,
    If you leave them in your computer, which knows what losses they did are

    So if you have done so, I highly recommend that you do both of the following
    immediately:

    1 do a clean reinstall of Windows.

  • Microsoft Windows Vista Home Permium freezes to the logon screen or gets stuck

    Microsoft Windows Vista Home Permium freezes to the logon screen or crashes on the black screen with Copyright Microsoft Corporation with the load with six green bars moving through bar. It will start in safe mode. I ran the auto repair (recommended) when starting after being forced to stop. After it says its full it restarts and remains stuck on the black screen with Copyright Microsoft Corporation with the load bar with six green bars that cross so I force disable it again.

    I had no problem with this computer, he got in last seven. It was working fine yesterday and then the without wire came out, so I restarted the computer to find the connection again as I had done several times before. That's when it froze on the opening of session and password screen. Who started this cycle of freezing or stuck on the black screen with the loading bar permanently running.

    UPDATE:
    Start safe mode then made the instructions on the clean boot. Not checked, all iteams he says and rebooted and it worked. So I went to the next step to select only half to refine the list. Restarted and when at the loading screen for a little over 30 sec - 1 min (which is more short than the time it took to work initially after the first stage of the boot with all unchecked), but it goes to a completely black screen that has not happened before. So now, a little lost, or do I have to keep trying to refine?

    Hi Greg,.

    It will not harm the computer to run it in a boot environment.  Some programs do not work properly because they were probably responsible for their own services and rely on them to work.  You have disabled all non-Microsoft services, and things like printers and software can be difficult.

    Click Start, then options type power and press ENTER.  Let us make sure that the system is not configured to sleep.  Go ahead and put the power plan to High Performance, then click on change Plan settings below.  There will be a framework for "put the computer to sleep".  The value than ever.

    If it continues to turn black in clean boot mode, you may have a hardware problem.  One thing you could do if it's a desktop system and really need to use it now, it is the lid of the machine and aim a fan in the box.  This will help if it is overheating.

    Please complete the steps to diagnose the problem with the boot when you have the chance.

  • Microsoft Product Support Services (C00D28B7) Windows Media Player 11

    I use a 4 month old XPS M1530 DELL with Windows Vista. And Windows Media Player 11 was already installed. I always update my computer with the latest updates for Windows and Vista.

    Hello. For a few weeks ago, I wanted to take the opportunity to see a TV program that was protected with DRM by using Windows Media Player 11 I have installed on my computer. After I chose to play this TV program with Windows Media Player 11, I got a message that I had to install an add-in to be able to view the selected program. I accepted and then.

    I never had a confirmation that it went well. And I'm still not able to see TV programs that are protected by DRM. Whenever I try to load the protected DRM content I get the same error. The error text that appears is the following (translated from the Norwegian version)

    There is a problem in the DRM (Digital Rights Management) component. Contact the Technical Support of Microsoft (C00D28B7). Windows Media Player cannot play the video and reported the error message above.

    I tried to get answers on how to solve this problem on the internet without finding any answers. Can someone please help me solve this? Please describe how, to English easy since my English could be better. I have also considered reversing this additional installation. It is to uninstall this add-on. Can someone help me to do this?

    Hi ourkid,

    Thanks for posting answers.microsoft.com

    It seems that the error log has been changed on your system.  If the DRM is used correctly, try to install this update to resolve the problem.
