I use a SCSI Epson Perfection 600 flatbed scanner which Windows XP dows not recognize. When the hardware wizard pops up, it fails to find a driver for the scanner but even so, I cannot CANCEL the annoying window from popping up FOUR more times after I pressed CANCEL!

Hoping that SP2 will fix the problem, I installed it but now the NEW Hardware Wizard looks fancier but it is still WORTHLESS! You get three options with the NEW Hardware Wizard: you can look for a driver

* Yes, this time only
*Yes, now and every time.........
*No, not this time

Regardles which option you pick. the goddam annoying window now pops up SIX times regardless!

Microsoft, please fix this piece of ***!




Any particular reason you won't install the device drivers provided by the scanner's manufacturer? Then you would have to deal with WinXP trying to do your chore for you.
