Using an HP Win 7, and a very old Microsoft Picture It! Digital Image Pro version 7. There are later versions, but I don't think MS is supporting any version for Win 7. I happen to like the program a lot, but I have others, some not yet installed. I recently installed this oldie on the Win 7, and used it for something with no problem, but when I asked it to scan something for me using the HP Photosmart C4280, it claims there's no scanner installed. For the record, I have scanned successfully on the Win 7 using IrfanView. And for the record, when it was installed on the XP, it worked just fine. I have an XP laptop and I'm thinking just to install it there, and when I need it, use the laptop. Is it possible to make a photo program see the scanner? How would I go about it?
