Re: filmscanners: Subject: 4000 ED and updating IEEE 1394 driver in 98 SE

Well,I managed to set it up and install everything finally,and have just 
spent a few hours getting to know it,and i have to say i am very impressed 
with the scans it produces.I think you may well be right,and i might not 
need the glass holder Gordon,but i will probably try it out anyway just to 
see for myself if there is any difference:)

I will have to experiment some more with it,but so far, at least the 
central portions of the images look as good to me as Kodak photo CD 
scans,which is all i can compare them to due to my limited scanner experience.

Seeing these first few scans has really enthused me,and i have no doubt 
that buying this scanner was the right choice !

Thanks again to all for your help and advice.

Leo

Leo:  Since you just received the scanned, I suggest you try to scan soome slides
with differing depths for the bow, from flat to really curved.  If you scan them
and judge the sharpness of each, you may find that you will not need the glass
slide holders with the new scanner.

It should explicidly imply Window 98 "Second Edition" 4.10.A ...
and I cannot find any mention of firewire support for Windows 98 at
the M$ knowledgebase  :-(

Leo, Can't help you on most of this, but 4.10.1998 is not 98 SE, it's just
98.  SE is 4.10..

Thats WIN98 original. SE is 98.10.A. It says second edition between "MS
Win 98" and the version number.
