The HP 2840 Color Laser MFC prints fine, but will not scan as it did in XP.
I now have Vista Ultimate 64 bit.
Any workarounds or ideas? Thank you.

Well, I confirmed with HP that there is no scanner driver for 64 bit Vista.

I disagree, however, with the technician's statement that it is because
"nobody likes Vista" because "it's as bad as ME." I have been running 64
bit Vista on 2 machines since it came out, and I am really DISAPPOINTED with
HP.

Guess that is why HP sells so many of their PC's with Vista 64
installed!!!!! I am giving up on their products.
