SYMPTOMS
In Windows 2000, when you attempt to use the Autoplay feature with the PrecisionScan LTX version 1.1 software that ships with the Hewlett-Packard (HP) 2100c scanner, the software may not install, and you may receive the following error message:

Scanner not supported. Click OK to exit this program.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur because the Autoplay feature points to a location that contains faulty Setup files.



RESOLUTION
To work around this problem:
 * 1) Insert the CD-ROM (for the previously mentioned software) into the CD-ROM drive, and then cancel Setup.
 * 2) On the CD-ROM, locate the X:\English\Setup.exe folder, and then run the installation program (where &quot;X&quot; is the drive letter that is used by your CD-ROM).
 * 3) The software is installed and the scanner functions correctly.
