It just indicated an "unknown" device and Insight could not find the scanner. I tried several approaches and got nowhere. I even tried some patches from MS. I wonder if trying the XP approach using 5.0 first and then installing 5.5 insight might work. I would really like to get the scanner working on firewire. Anyway, it would appear Mictrotek might have a patch or something built into the driver to allow the firewire to work with Win 88 SE. Hopefully, Polaroid will do the same soon.
