Click start, control panel, printers and faxes, scanners and cameras, look at the list. Is your scanner on the list? There must be a green check mark on the device you intend to use. If the check mark is not there, the scan won't function.
Siverfast is epson, are you using an epson printer?

Alex;

you MUST install the correct ASPI files for the Nikon 3 scanner to work with XP. If you go to Nikon's site you can find the info (and files you need) there. You should be using an Adaptec SCSI card with the scanner as well.
