I recently upgraded my PC to Win 7 and the issue with Presicionscan Pro came up. With the help of the Internet and my own guts, I found a perfect working solution.
I want to share this with everybody.
- Installation: Modify the setup program properties to run as an administrator and set compatibility mode to WinXPSP3. Then proceed with the installation.
- Stop and disable the service Windows Image Acquisition (WIA).
- Modify the program launch link (or better the program itself) the same way as above (admin/XPSP3).
- You're good to go!
On very rare occasions your scan will block anyway.
The first thing to check is the status of the service.
Sometimes the service gets enabled and restarted again.
At the moment I am not sure what program does this and since it is rare...
Powerdown or disconnect the scanner, stop all HP Presionscan programs and processes. Only then you will be able to stop and disable the service again.
I hope this helps somebody out there.
The download I received from you help and support office realy help me to use my Scanjet 1400c well. If the update will be available, I will apperciate to have it.
