UMax Astra 2200 and Windows XP

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.scanner (More info?)

I installed Windows XP and now my
Umax Astra 2200 doesn't work. I get the below message from Windows.

I still have the CD that came with the scanner. It says Astra Scanners
Version 2.52S, VistaScan 3.52. I see on UMax's website that I can buy a new
disk, for $15. I don't think I should have to pay for the disk (which may
not even solve my problem) just to get a scanner I already paid for working.

In my searching I found this link but it doesn't work:
ftp://ftp.umax.co.uk/pc/umax/scan [...] 2suall.zip

Windows message:
UMAX VistaScan Scanner
UMAX

Yes, even the Umax UK site goes to this same download area at the German
one.
