Driver for a negative scanner

NIMAN

Hoping someone can help.

I have this slide/negative scanner, its a Summit Photofix model.



Haven't used it in years, and tried to install the software/driver on 2 laptops, one Windows 7 other Win8. Then found the box and see its only suitable for Win XP.

Anyone know where I got get a driver for either OS?

A bit of a Google found this: http://www.other3dlands.com/index.php?download_driver=36898&dec2013=1

Not sure if it works.

Thanks, will try soon and let you know if it worked or not.

Aldi sell these from time to time if the above doesn't work. Seen one in the Kildare store a fortnight ago. https://www.aldi.ie/en/specialbuys/hurry-while-stocks-last/hurry-while-stocks-last/ps/p/maginon-fs-500-film-scanner/

Here's a good guide for finding a driver for any device online:

Post up the hardware ID of the device using that guide and we'll see if we can find it.
