2000p.exe

"Files missing on install (seem to be mainly for the manual) but would not work anyway on XP SP2.

"

"UMAX wants their customers to pay for the XP driver, which is pathetic customer service. The Win 2000 driver was downloaded for use on an XP Pro SP 2 system in hopes that it would work with an old Astra 1220P. The 6-disk set of zip files only took a minute to unzip. Running setup.exe from the disk1 files installed the driver and all the VistaScan accessories. XP still doesn't "know" that it's installed, but the software does drive the scanner, and everything works in a predictable manner. XP still reports new hardware found upon startup. Not a biggie, though, as this can be terminated. The bottom line: the 2000 driver works.

"This drivers (in custom,only select the first option) with this files works great! thanks

"The driver was not working with Windows XP. It caused an exception after installation, so it has to be removed without any test of functionality"

"doesn't work with winme

"Works good, and easy to install, i liked"

"good, but don't work on win xp"

"would not install at all.fatal eror"

"but it still not reconized by windows XP why"

"Hey Jason, I'm getting the same exact problem. I remember around a year ago I got my 1220p to work with XP and it worked flawlessly. After moving I just found it in a box and tried to get it working and all I get is the black image on preview and scan. Tried different settings and nothing. At least I know it's not my scanner since you have the same problem so it has to be something on the software/driver side. Anyone have any ideas how to solve it? Thanks in advance."

"HIIIII, i am just begin to download this driver....

(^_^)v

well that's all

see you in matrix

-xins."

"Installation works, program launches fine, but when I perform either a preview or a scan, the image is black. Any ideas? Thanks."

"does anyone have the 2 folders off of the original CD that can zip it for me and send it? thanx"

"cant get it work ?? not very good with puters sorry"

"it works excellent with windows xp but I need now the presto page manager and i don´t know where to find it"

"10x Akash! It works pretty well on win2000pro and Umax Astra 2000P. If you don't copy the 2 directorys according to Akash instructions the installation is not complete. In this case if you try to scan something with maximum possible size or just test the scanner, when the lamp is at the end the driving belt makes a sound like it will break something."

"I've had the same issue with my 2000P while running WinXP, two files MIA, actually worse cuz my whole computer crashed had to reload windows (bad dll's ???). It could've been something else, but that was the last thing I did before the computer went haywire. Got any other drivers for 2000P under WinXP?!"

"O.K. what's the catch, all I had to do was reboot my computer and everything works. I have XP and a 2000P. Thanks - this really helped me out."

"Woohoo! Worked awesome!!! I recently upgraded to XP and the only driver I could find for my 1220p was one for a HP scanner, but it lacked a copy utility (which I needed) Hugs and hisses to u all!!!"

"WAHOOOOOOO !!! I have not used my 1220p in over 2 years because I lost the install disk and couln't find the driver. I followed the instructions given by Akash and it only took me two minutes. I did have to restart for my computer to locate the new hardware,(just like Paul did) but it works like a dream. Thanks a million."

"Have not trird it yet."

"You are great ! This Driver works also with Windows XP. Till now we had a problem to install the device."

"I followed the directions of Akash (Wed Nov 27 03 05 01 EST 2002), but it didn't work for me. Installation freezes. 2 files, whose names I can't remember, can not be found."

"I am so very grateful for the posting of this driver. I have been fighting my 1200P for a very long time and suddenly the application is working, and even better, it appears stable. The frosting on the cake is my transmissive head (UTA) for tranparencies works. Scanning my slide collection was the one compelling reason for my purchasing of this scanner. Yet its been the most unstable. One issue 1) My original install disk did not have a profiles folder in it, All of the files there errored in the setup so if anyone knows what files are in there and where I might find them, It'd be nice to have an error free installation (I'm a perfectionist!) Again, thank you."

"I think we need a beter softer to make this scaner work. this is a slower printer port scaner. so thats why we need a fast softwear to drive does anyone know about it. plz write to me. Nafis Ahmad"

"Cannot download it the page fails."

"i downloaded it, and when i ran a test scan it gave me 0000000000000h error. I have win XP. Can someone help?"

"Maayo bay Jerry. mo run jug and driver. salamat kaau."

"astra 1220p. successful. thank you."

"You are a LEGEND mate. You saved me from buying another scanner. LOL Keep up the good work. Cheers"

"THank you very much for providig me this driver"

"I dont know weather it will work with win XP.If yes mail me how to make it work."

"this driver works on win2000"

"Thanks Jerry K! I really needed those drivers."

"Todo bien, gracias por los drivers, pero UMAX es una cagada."

"Scroll down & follow Akash's & Robert's notes. Only install TWAIN driver- uncheck other otpions. Worked beautiful under Win2000 Pro. PhotoShop can now use my 1220P."

"I do not suceed to install my Umax, astra 2000p with the instruction give by Akash. I have Windows XP How to deselect and what deselect with windows XP. How to do it ?"

"No entiendo como UMAX no tiene drivers para 1220S, tengo que probar otros drivers. UMAX es una cagada"

"When installing on XP O/S, once you've started Install, choose CUSTOM and deselect everything but the twain driver. Jerry...works like a champ..you and the 2000P.zip driver"

"After hours of searching, downloading, installing and uninstalling, I have found the only drivers that work!!! Thanks"

"Need a driver ?? that's the a URL to remember !! thanks"

"Works on Win2000 for a 1200P. Had to ignore some pdf help files because of corruption, but it works."

"Tried to use but got error message when trying to install for Win ME OS. Very frustrating !!!!!!"

"I would like to receive information again"

"Hurray!!! Thanks Driverguide & Akash"

"Thanx buddy, You solved my problem. I could successfully install my junked astra 2000p back to life. )"

"Hi All, This driver actually works on win2k pro for astra 2000p...I could install these successfully in very short amount of time. This is the way out... 1. Download the driver file [self extractor] 2000p.exe from this site 2. Run this exe and allow it to extract into C \umax2000p 3. This file will extract into six more self extracting exe files named DISK1.EXE, DISK2.EXE, ..., DISK6.EXE 4. Run each one of them and allow them to extract into their default folder (c \UMAX) 5. You will find a new folder c \UMAX\VSTASCAN 6. Now from your original Umax Astra Scanner Installation CD copy the following two folders, as it is, into c \UMAX\VSTASCAN 1. ENGLISH 2. PROFILES NOTE The installation will give you a missing file error if you donot do so. 7. Final Step Run C \UMAX\VSTASCAN\DISK1\VSSETUP.EXE Follow the instructions on the screen. And after you are convinced with the installation, either move C \UMAX to your backup folder or burn this folder onto a CD-R(W) to back it up for future. "He who smiles, probably had a backup""

"That's because astra 1220P is the same scaner as hp 3200C (or vice versa) )"

"I can't download the file-I only get 92k of it, says it's complete, but obviously isn't. ("

"Can you belief Windows 2000 picks a Hp 3200c scanner up as a Umax Astra 1220P. I Hope this works."

"I installed successfully on Windows XP following custom option and deselecting everything but the twain driver. Had to reboot to recognize scanner and received XP request to install new device (recognized as 1220P even though I have 2000P). I hit proceed and it said it could not find drivers, which was probably OK because I already installed this one. Anyway, it worked and THANK YOU!!!"

"RE my post below I'm using Win 2000 Pro, and I have an Astra 2000P scanner. No go for me."

"So close, but I can't make it work. It either crashes my 2000 Pro when it begins a test scan, or refuses to recognize that I even have a scanner. Sigh."

"Thank you Jerry and Robert! I thought I was going to have to pitch my scanner. I am due for a new one anyway, but now I can wait. Tom T. - the file is really vssetup.exe. You may have been trying to execute setup.inf (especially if you have "hide extensions for known file types" checked under Tools->options in explorer)."

"See my earlier posting. If you have any solutions, could you email me at "Tomtekulve@aol.com". Thanks."

"I use Win XP Home. I downloaded, then double clicked the exe file. XP comes back and says it is "not a valid Win 32 application" and won't run. Does anyone have any ideas. I have the Umax Astra 1220P scanner. Would love to get it working again."

"thank you all for providig me this driver."

"When installing on 2000pro O/S, choose "custom" and deselect everything but the twain driver."

"Hey I hope your right because I'm going to try it on my astra 2000p. I'll let you know."
