My Dad has an old scanner that he does not want to PART with, and I really can't blame him as they really don't MAKE them like that anymore, the thing weighs over 20 pounds...  It's an HP ScanJet4c, version 2.3.  It has a 50 pin scsi terminal on the back and the included cable terminates w/a DB25 on the scsi card side.  The unit came with a PCI/scsi card, a AdvanSys;ABP-930/40UA - ABP-960/70UA that is only compatible with Win 95-98.

He would like to use this scanner on a Compac PIII w/128Mb RAM running Win Me, VER. 4.90.3000 though he is willing to upgrade to XP.

I know there are products (PCI/scsi cards/adapters) available that will make this work but the DEALERS I have contacted have not gone out of their way to reply.

Thanks for any input or suggestions.  Oh, and not too technical...

thanks,
