Hi,
I'm trying to sort a problem out for a friend of mine.
He's running a 700Mhz Celeron computer Windows ME with 64MB PC133
SDRAM, Gigabyte GA-6WMM7 mainboard, plenty of spare disk space on a
10Gb disk.
The device will scan intermittently on 75dpi but hangs when pushed up
to 150dpi never mind 300dpi.
I presumed it was lack of RAM and tried my stick of 256MB PC100 SDRAM
but there was no change in the scanning operation, it kept hanging.
Was this because it was PC100 and not PC133 RAM?
I've installed the MP370 onto my machine, AMD 500Mhz, 256 PC100 SDRAM,
Windows XP, 120Gb hard disk and while it says that the USB device is
High Speed and my ports are not and it may run at a slower speed it
scans OK at all ranges of DPI without hanging.
Has anyone any advice,
thanks in advance
Mike
