Are your USB ports known to be working correctly with other devices?

Are they on the motherboard or on a hub.... if a hub, powered or unpowered?

What happens when you just plug in the scanner or camera and start Windows?
Does the New Hardware Found Wizard come up?

Some digicams have a transfer setting. Mine does, and I didn't need to
install anything to use it. Simply plug it into my usb port, turn it to
transfer mode, and then windows asked me how I wanted to download and name
the files etc.
