A thousand humble apologies to all scsi cable manufacturers. Grovel, grovel.
Further investigation makes me think that my 'noise' comes from the scsi card and/or card drivers. I put the allegedly noisy scsi cable back in place of the new scsi cable and I did not get my noisy scan. Oh dear, thinks I. Any way , to cut the chase, my re-evaluation is as follows (subject to any further ideas) :- PC 1, with flatbed scanner 1, Tekram scsi card - either cable = noise PC 2, with flatbed scanner 1, Domex scsi card - either cable = no noise PC 3, with flatbed scanner 2, other scsi card - old scsi = noise, usb no noise Sadly PC 3 and flatbed 2 and the other scsi card were stolen. So not sure what the other scsi card was. In the case of PC 1 and 2 the operating system is w98, the flatbed has no drivers loaded in windows, it's a yellow question mark in the device manager. Vuescan 7.4.2 used whatever scsi stuff it needs. The motherboards are different. So there we go. Look before you leap and all that. Yours suitably chastised Dave. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
