| lostconnection Tl Posts: 18 | Posted - 1/22/2001 10:08:40 PM    I have a serial USR Faxmodem. After I installed a new USB scanner, the modem's response seems to slow down quite considerably. Is this normal? |
| nielsph Tl Posts: 7 | Posted - 1/23/2001 10:12:40 AM Have you tried to simply disconnect the scanner (dont uninstall drivers etc. Just disconnect the scanner and see if modem improves). If this doesn't help you might try to unistall the scanner drivers. Maybe a driver bug for the scanner can affect other USB devices. |
