I have an old Compatibles by Compaq scanner/keyboard that worked with win98, but I can't seem to get it to work with XP.
It's connects thru one of my serial ports. Does anyone know how to or if it can work with XP?
I recommend downloading and running DAP. It can help sort out any driver and firmware related issues on your system
It's worked out well for many of us in the past.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloaddap.org. (This link will open the download page of DAP so you can save a copy to your computer.)
see if they put out drivers for xp
i had to replace my scanner because of no drivers for xp
I just got a new Dell Inspiron... will this keyspan keyboard scanner work for me?
also, if you have any experience with this scanner please let me know. i would appreciate the insight.
It should, but I've never heard of it.
Does anyone know if the Logitech wireless keyboard is compatible with my Dell? I've heard that Dell is famous for making people buy only Dell replacement parts.
Thanks.
Yes, it is. My daughter uses a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse with her Dell Inspiron.
I plan to buy a new Dell PC soon and would like to keep my scanner, an Epson Perfection 1200 PHOTO.
I did a Windows XP-compatible hardware search and noticed that several of the Epson 1200 series scanners (e.g., 1240 and 1260) were shown. However, I didn't see my 1200 listed. Does this mean that my scanner is not compatible with XP?
(I did see my monitor, a SONY HMD-A200, listed, so I assume that it is XP-compatible.)
I would greatly appreciate hearing from someone who can verify these compatibility issues for me.
Thank you,
Bill
Can I make it compatible with Vista by getting a new version or driver? The one that I have is a Visioneer 4400 USB...it's not fancy, but it used to work with my XP. LOL
Ive never used vista but i just read that you can install the Visioneer 4400 drivers on vista using the
xp sp2 compatibility mode
Can anyone recommend a cheap flatbed scanner?
One that works in Windows 7 64 bit.
My ole Visioneer 8700 is a paper weight now that I've got Windows 7.
Thx,
CT
Not sure if this would be cheaper or better than buying a new scanner but yours is supported and it will work with Windows 7
VueScan Scanning Software
My scanner, which admittedly is a bit old (6 or 7 years) is not compatible with Windows seven (64-bit). The scanner still works great and I'd hate to just dump it because it doesn't work on my new computer.
The scanner is a Visioneer One Touch 7100 USB Scanner. I already tried the manufacturers website, no luck. They simply tell me that the scanner is not compatible with Windows seven.
I tried plugging the scanner in while I was on the internet and letting the computer search for drivers, ...... no luck there either.
Can anyone help? Or should I just give up on this? I don't want to damage this computer. The only thing I really used it for was scanning documents.

Read other answersI've decided to try my hand at building my own PC. I intend it to be a medium - high end gaming computer. I've got everything figured out (at least I hope) I'm just wanting a second opinion about my choice of motherboard and CPU. I'm pretty sure they are compatible, at least in theory, I was just wondering if anyone had any first hand experience with them, or any advice for me. Hey, if you feel like it, recommend something bigger and better. I have a pretty good budget for this (within reason of course, nothing too outrageous).

One big question I have, however, is whether a GeForce 8800GT graphics card with its super long design would fit correctly or at all in that motherboard. The 2nd PCI-E slot has to be the first one used, so I couldn't put it in the top slot. I think it would fit, but not quite sure.
Anyways, thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to have a read through this, and an extra thanks to anyone with any advice or comments.
why can u not use the first slot? the only problem should be with the case. put the mem. in before u put the video card in.
Will this work in my system and is it any Good?

Hello! I am building my own computer and I need a CPU fan that is compatible with a MS I N1996 motherboard (serial number: 2076920023220, other numbers: MS 77236 version 2.2, 945p, Neo3). I also have a Corsair CX500 PSU. If there is nothing inexpensive for a CPU fan, can you provide me with a motherboard that is compatible with my PSU and a CPU fan for it? Thank you!
I have a stick of ram: 256MB, DDR, 400, CL3, PC3200U-30331-A1
Is it compatible with a eMachine T3256?
Also, could someone explain how to determine if ram is compatible or not.
Thanks
It would probably work, but it would run at the slower speed of the PC2700 if the specs are correct for your computer.
How do I know what ram is compatible for my system? I ran Belarc adviser & without opening up my tower I know I have an empty slot. I have a spare 512MB stick that was taken from my other computer & if it is compatible I'd like to add it to the system that is lacking ram. The stick that I have is a PC3200 DDR 400MHz 512MB. The info that I have from Belarc is Slot 'J6G1' has 256 MB Slot 'J6G2' is Empty, whether that is helpful or not. Hope someone can help.

I have the minimum speed and RAM.
The package says the hardware is compatible with my system EXCEPT it lists almost every version of Windows operating systems except specifically 98se......and 3.1.........it lists 95, 98, Me, XP, 2000...
Could it be possible that it's compatible with all these OP systems, just not 98se?.....that's what the store is trying to tell me and I have a hard time believing that.............or is there something I'm missing?
Right before I tried to install the Mad Dog, I upgraded from 98 to 98Se.......'sighs'

Hey, I have a Gateway E-4600, it has an Intel D850GB Motherboard, I was wondering if a Nivida GeForce 5500 will be compatible with it, and if it will have any problems running? Thanks!
The motherboard does have a AGP 1.5Volt slot so you shoudl be able to use the FX5500 with it.
Be aware that the FX5500 isn't a very good gaming card if you are purchasing it for that purpose.
Hello,
I am wondering whether this CPU: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AMD-Athlon-64...m&pt=UK_Motherboards_CPUs&hash=item1c12632912
is compatible with my PC. Here are my motherboard specifications: http://www.foxconnchannel.com/product/motherboards/detail_spec.aspx?ID=en-us0000306#
I am worried because it says on the CPU details "Compatible RAM --------> DDR2 SDRAM" I added new RAM recently and it is DDR2, I don't remember anything about SDRAM; is it still okay?
Sorry for my newbiness, if someone could give me a helpful answer it would be much appreciated.

Ok My Desktpop has 1GB Ram but recently its getting slower as I play and download a lot of games. So i was thinking of upgrading it to 2 GB or 3GB for better performance. The 1GB i have rite now is DDR PC2 5300 (667 Mh). So if I buy a 1GB DDR2 PC2 6400 and install it in my other slot will it work perfectly as its a bit different? Also if I buy 2GB DDR2 PC2 4200 (533 Mh) will it work with my other one without any problems?
My other question is when I install another ram on the other slot do I have to install anything on the bios or aything else? or will it be added to my memory I have now?
Also My mother board is Intel D946GZIS with 2 slots (with maximum 3 GB memory I think)
Here is the result when I scan my pc in crucial.com
Thank you
Hi i have a p4 and was thinking of switching to windows xp 64bit edition if i can find out if i can support it. I tried looking on intels website but i couldn't find anything that really helped me so maybe one of u can.
Processor is Pentium 4 3.2GHz with HT
x86 family 15 model 2
if theres any other information needed i will respond promply
will 2 different brands of SDRAM be compatible with each other
i.e.
256 mb from crucial +
256 mb from kingston...?
yes, each selection of ram would have the same compatability (PC 133, 168 pin DIMM to be exact)
i dont see why not, i am just curious before I buy
thanks
My laptop's got 256 of no-name OEM in one slot and 512 of Corsair in the other.
My linux box has 32 of kingston in one slot and 32 of Dell in the other.
My gaming box has 512 of K-Byte in one slot and 1024 of Patriot in the other.

Hello, just a quick question.
This is my motherboard http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4434#

I want to start building a new gaming computer and have found some of the parts I would like to use but I am not sure if they are compatible or not. The Asus X79-DELUXE motherboard and the Intel® Core™ i7-4820K Processor. I would appreciate the help.
Yes it will be compatible as the CPU uses the cpu socket LGA 2011 and that is the socket which the motherboard has.
My grandson who is in the military bought a new 23 inch computer monitor and then was deployed so he gave the monitor to my wife. When I connected it to her computer with WXP, the display was too large for the screen. When on the Internet you cannot see the minimizing icon or the X to close the program. In addition, the fonts were difficult to read and some window frames that contained text were so faint you could not read the text. I believe the new monitor resolution was 1080X1920.
I have bought new larger size computer monitors in the past and had no difficulty. I reduced the recommended resolution which brought the above referenced icons into view but the fonts were still difficult to read.
My question: Is there some way you have to determine if your computer can support a monitor before you make the purchase?
I'm going to assume that's a 23" wide-screen LCD monitor.
Can you provide a description of it?

Right-click MY COMPUTER, then click Properties - Hardware - Device Manager.

Hi
I needed to reinstall windows and decided on W7 64bit but now my Canon pixma printer IP4200 will not work,( 32bit version)
Tried the supposedly 64bit driver from Canon but still no luck.
Uninstalled printer software and tried again, still no luck.
Looks like a new printer required, but the question is what Inkjet printer will work with w7 64bit.
Does any member have a printer that works and if so what make (prefer Canon)
Getting desparate now
Thanks
Luftra
I would hold off before buying a new printer. If it was working before and the only difference is you've installed Windows 7 64bit, then you should be able to get it to work.
One thought, what was the Operating System you had before?
This printer isn't wireless, right? So it is connected with USB? (Connect the printer first before doing the following).
You could try running Windows Update, after going into the "Change Settings" and ticking the option "give me recommended updates...", the update facility might (should) offer you the correct driver to install for the printer.

Hi,
I have a Gigabyte AM2+ AMD770 DDR2 ATX Audio Lan motherboard
http://www.shop.bt.com/products/gig...audio-lan-5GRK.html?refs=418610000&q=gigabyte am2
Which supports the following processors
Compatible Processors Athlon, Athlon 64, Sempron, Athlon 64 FX, Athlon 64 X2, Athlon X2, Phenom X4, Phenom X3, Sempron X2, Phenom II X4
Would this work with a AMD Phenom II X2 545 3GHz Socket AM3
http://www.shop.bt.com/products/amd...z-socket-am3-6mb-cache-ret-67BW.html?q=phenom
I think it will even though it is not explicitly listed as compatible on the motherboards listing because Phenom II X4 is listed.
Anybody know for sure ?
Cheers
Dave
Actually according to Gigabyte's site for that mothrboard it does list that processor as compatible.
Friends,
Hello.
Since my lap top is quite 'old' with Windows XP reinstalled, there is confusion with regards to the display driver and the Ethernet adapter. I managed to get to some Websites which correctly identified these but d/l not possible?, maybe there is a equivalent driver avail now with a different name But b4 I install something thought it is best to get some expert help first
The lap top is Tundra 1557 MS 2141.
The display driver identified as
Mobility M10 version 6.14.10.6404, created on 11.13.2003
and
the Ethernet adapter is
Intel 8255x PCI 10/100 version 5.42.22.0 created on 7.1.2001
Kindly adv if any links avail for these and/or any updated equivalent are around now.
Thx a ton for all the help. Cheers
I have a computer that came with (2x1)gb 800mhz ddr2 ram. I want to know if this mother board will support (2x2)gb 1066mhz ram. The mother board i have is an Asus M2N68-LA. I bought a compaq presario case with just the motherboard in it from a friend so I don't know if it is the original or not. I have still made do with this computer but I don't know anything about this motherboard.
This motherboard does not support 1066MHz RAM and also the CPU you are running may not as well. It isnt worth putting 1066MHz ram in as it will only run at 800MHz
The motherboard does support 4GB or RAM for 32 bit operating systems
and 8GB for 64 Bit operating systems.
also if you decide to upgrade your CPU make sure it isn't over 89 watts as the mobo wont support it.

So they're incompatible and I have to get a new case right?
Is this RAM compatible with this motherboard, the ASRock P4i65G?
http://www.memoryc.com/products/des...C3200_CL2_5_memory_module-8_chips_/index.html
As my owwn computer has only 256 MB of shared memory I'm thiking of upgrading with a reason..
According to Asrock that ram should work.
So i'm planning on upgrading my processor and the manual gives the following compatible processors:
Intel® Core™ i7 - 3610QM Processor
Intel® Core™ i5 - 3210M Processor
Intel® Core™ i3 - 3110M Processor
Does this mean that every i7 processor is compatible or just that specific 1? because i've tried finding it but that has proven to be really difficult.
Most likely, it means exactly what it says; you need the specific cpu. Just because a mb supports a given socket does NOT mean it supports all cpus based on said socket. A mb bios must have the correct microcode to run the cpu at the correct multi AND it must set the correct vcore or cpu voltage. In addition, different cpus require different amounts of wattage ie pw consumption. The mb VRs must be capable of reliably supplying the required pw.
Since this is a laptop, you are going to be very restricted on what cpu you can install.
The internal hard drive in my laptop died and needs replacing. I have a Dell XPS M1530 and the original hard drive specs are: 500GB, S2, 5.4k, 2.5 SGT-WYATT. How can I tell if a hard drive is compatible with this machine? I am looking on Newegg and found: Western Digital Caviar Black WD7502AAEX 750GB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Would that drive work or would I need something else (suggestions are welcome)? Also, I am going to install myself. Will I need anything else to complete the install? The laptop is used more for documents and stuff, but my kids occasionally play games (nothing intense though) and watch cartoons. Thanks in advance!!
I have a Sony Vaio PCVRZ36G with an Asus P4SD-VX. Is there an upgadeable mother board I can go to that will support all my current hardware? (socket 478 3Ghz P4 Northwood, 4G pc3200 Ram low dens./4x1g sticks, all bios/chipset up to date and running XP pro with all updates).
Also, I stupidly bought (eBay/high shipping) a 1G nVidia 8600GT Video card requiring a longer PCI slot which my Asus does not have. Any hope for this dilema? Perhaps a MB that can solve all this?
I purchased this unit used 2yrs ago with damage to the mouse/kybd inputs. Switched these to USB and have never ever had a problem. I consider my self an "Advanced User" not quite tech level in knowledge. I've dug into just about everything in the last 12yrs short of MBs. Should be a screw out/screw in process I assume (?)
Thanks for any and all help in advance!!
Hi,
I've purchased an old m/board for a test and play machine. The m/board is a MSI MS-6156BX v2.1 with the Blue "C" sticker (PII and i think also PIII compatible board). I was looking at getting a PIII 800 (133Mhz Bus) or a PIII 1Ghz (133Mhz Bus)for it. From the information i've read from the MSI site for this board, it is supposed to support up to PIII 1Ghz.
However, what i am confused on is that the manufacturers state that this board supports a 66/100Mhz bus. So the question in mind is will the PIII 800Mhz/1Ghz with the 133Mhz Bus work with this board?
According to the cpu support list for this board, it uses 133FSB x 6 to get 800Mhz while it uses a 100FSB x 10 to get the 1Ghz. So because both the 800Mhz and 1Ghz use 133 Buses, will they still be compatible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
Regards
Steve
