Scanner - Acer Scan2Web 3300U (S2W 3300U) - Vista Drivers

kerrodhall · 05-19-2007, 07:13 PM

I have recently bought Vista, installed it and have been happily using it for a month now. The problem is, I now want to use my Acer Scan2Web 3300U Scanner but it wont install the drivers. I get the following problem....

===

Windows encountered a problem installing the drivers software of your device.

Windows found driver software for your device but it encountered an error while attempting to install it.

BenQ S2W 4300U/3300U Scanner.

The system cannot find the file specified.

If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit it's website and check the support section for driver software.

===

I went to both the Acer and BenQ websites trying to get the drivers for it, I managed to download the Mirascan thing for XP, but then i found the option for Vista Drivers on one of the pages, i clicked it and it took the to the following link....
http://secure3.tx.acer.com/VistaDown...cerSeries.aspx

I then got the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" page.

Any ideas where I can the vista drivers from? Please let me know ASAP

Hi,
It seems benQ will not be doing drivers for Vista for all but their latest hardware. I've searched high and low and the best looking solution I can find for you is a program/drivers called VueScan.

It's release notes say it works with your scanner without the need for any benQ or Acer software.
Worth a try!!

Acer were taken over by BenQ, so try here........

Free Registration is required to download anything, but it's harmless i.e. they don't send you junk mail etc.

Hi, looks like the drivers linked previously are not much good for Vista and I'm drawing a blank from searches.
The only solution I see for Vista is the Vuescan Software.....

Maybe there's other titles on freeware, but I can't find any!
