Please make sure of the following before you begin installation:
If your computer has AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software running,
■
you may see messages during installation asking you to allow the
installation to proceed. Although the messages will differ based on
the software your computer is running, in each case you should
allow the installation to proceed. Alternatively, you can turn off the
AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software before installing your scanner,
but if you do, make sure to turn it back on again when installation
is finished.
If you already have a scanner connected to your computer, it is
■
recommended that you remove that scanner's driver program prior
to installing your Visioneer Patriot 780 scanner. While in some
cases you can configure your computer to have another
manufacturer's scanner operational on your computer in
conjunction with the Visioneer Patriot 780 scanner, we do not
recommend this configuration as you may lose some of the driver
functionality on one, or both of the units. You can remove these
programs from the Windows Add/Remove programs list. Please
refer to the user manual provided with your other scanner hardware
for instructions about removing the driver and software for that
unit.
