I can't get my Mustek 600 III EP Plus flatbed Scanner to install. I have windows Xp home version and this old scanner that we bought 5 years ago and haven't used. I don't have an disk for it and plug n play is not working it's not reconizing it on my emachine computer. I have it plugged into the printer cable in the back that's the only place it fits.

Download and install the latest drivers for your scanner (which are Windows
XP compatible).

You can pick them up here:

Good Morning and Happy Easter,
I thought I was the only one in the world that owned Mustek 600 III EP
Plus flatbed Scanner. Guess there is at least 2 of us now. Have you
downloaded the drivers yet from the website?
http://www.mustek.com/download/driv_scanr/english/600iiieplus.html Just
curious as to what they mean in the directions ?? # Installation of this
driver requires that you log in as Administrator. Please restart your
computer and log on as Administrator, using a capital 'A', prior to
installing this driver.
Please let me know if you've figured it out.
Thanks so much, Donna J.

Hi Donna -

"Administrator" is a user name that is created when Windows XP is first
installed on your system.

Ordinarily you don't use it for much of anything as you are able to create
user accounts with Administrative privileges.

If the Mustek installer won't work from a user account with Administrative
privileges, restart your computer in Safe Mode (press and hold the F8 key
prior to the Windows XP banner appearing when you first start up your
computer and you'll receive the startup menu where you can use the up and
down arrow keys to select "Safe Mode"). At the login screen in Safe Mode,
click on the Administrator user name and supply the administrator password
(if any was entered when Windows XP was installed on your computer).

Thanks Jef, will give this a try. I know how to get into safe mode, but I
was just confused about "using a capital "A" " Once this is completed, will
this allow the Mustek to be listed in device manager then? Do you happen to
know?
Thanks so much,
Donna J.
