If you're sure there are no drivers included with Win2K for your scanner, you should call Umax and ask them when you can expect them. Many manufacturers are late producing drivers....some plan not to produce drivers for Win2K at all. You might also go to the newsgroup search engine at dejavu.com, enter your scanner model, and see what other users are saying.

When you get your MOBO installed, and prior to installing Win2K be sure to flash it with the Bp6QQ bios recently available at: ftp://ftp.abit.com.tw/pub/beta/bp6/bios/bp6qq.exe. Without this flash, Win2K will not recognize the BP6 as an ACPI board, nor will it run USB in MPS 1.4 mode. Although this bios revision is currently in Beta, it's solved a host of problems for me. ======== Abit BP6, Dual Cel 466's OC'd to 525, Win2K, WinNT4 SP6a, Win98SE
