    Hard Drive Upgrade Advice

    osuman, Thanks for your reply. What I was really after (and didn't make it that clear !!) was info on my 5170, and whether it was Ultra DMA compliant - I'm not too up on these things, has Ultra DMA been around for a while (my 5170 is about 3yrs old...) Thanks again.

    Just in case anyone has this thread marked, I'd thought I'd let you know that I've now got my scanner working !!! I spoke to HP Tech Support and after the usual de-install, delete registry, delete USB Devices, re-boot, reinstall - I was still no further forward. A colleague suggested that I...
