You missed out the MOST important steps.......

STEP 4 as on my website - so the old and possibly corrupted drivers will be
reinstalled. Step 4 MUST be completed in order fot XP and 2000 to force
them to see new drivers.

Also for the scanner part - you mst go into the Device Manager, look for
Imaging Devices and right click the scanner and select uninstall. Then
reboot the PC.

Then reinstall the updated software and do NOT reconnect the All in One unit
unit until the softare tells you to dp so.

I found that this file(hpqtra08.exe) keeps getting deleted and I have to keep reinstalling it to get my scan button to work on my 1350 hp. I keep a copy in my documents. When the scan button stops working, I just reinstall that file and it works again just fine.
