New machine up and running, still have to sort out Quickbooks 2008 Pro and driver for my scaner (canoscan 8000f) but everything else seems ok, much faster than my old machine but time will tell

I am going to buy a HP Pocket Media drive probably about 160gb as The new beast has a pocket on the front and it will save even more desk space. Watching one now on ebay and I have a 20% voucher valid until tomorow

Anybody got contacts for canon scanner drivers (8000f)

David · Sep 28, 2008, 22:38:27

At the moment the only thing I can not seem to get working is my scanner, downloaded driver and toolbox but it will just not recognise the scaner.

Still have not got the scanner working but the media pocket drive arrived today. Plugged it in followed the instructions and set up was so easy. Can not believe that I now have a 350gb hard drive with a 160gb back up hard drive all in one unit. Will use my old external drive for my laptop and have saved yet more space on my desk.

Rik · Oct 05, 2008, 11:11:45

Now, about this 1.5TB NAS unit you know you need, Den.

Scanner now working and I have bought Omnipage 15 Pro off Ebay. Registered it and upgraded program on line to run on Vista. Also ordered Photoshop elements 6 with Onone Ellements2 delivered for £36.99, getting there and lots to play with.

Rik · Oct 07, 2008, 17:21:09

You'll love Elements, Den.

Den · Oct 07, 2008, 17:24:02

Read the revue on version 7 and they said if you have 6 not to bother to upgrade, so at the price it sounds a good buy. 8)

Rik · Oct 07, 2008, 17:27:36

It will do all you want to, Den.
