It refused to scan the sketches.
Kept trying to tell me that it was a document.
Hitting the browse option didn't produce any results different from what I've experienced with it.
(Was one of the things I tried initially.)

Something else it does, it grabs onto system memory and resources, and doesn't let them go.
And if you scan again, it grabs more system memory and resources unntil you have to reboot the machine.

Could just be the scanner itself, and just this scanner.
Or the installation was somehow slimed and has gone undetected.
(I did not install the scanner, so I do not know.)

Oh, I see. All those symptoms do sound strange. I guess it could be the scanner itself.

I did not install the scanner, so I do not know.

If you have the Scanner software disc still, you might try to uninstall the software from your computer and then reinstall it. The instructions specifically say to install the software FIRST before hooking up the scanner. The guy that seemed to know what he was talking about in the review that I read said that was important.

I think I would give it a try, if it were me. Nothing to lose, given the symptoms, and everything to gain if it resolves the issues. :)

If uninstall/reinstall doesn't fix your problems, it could be something with the scanner possibly.
