And we're off to a flying start here...... the first item I check - my Epson Perfection 4490 Scanner - isn't even listed.

In fact, no Epson products are listed

Wassup? Epson no give Bill the back hander?

Strange, cos Epson do actually supply scanner drivers to work with Vista for my model and also dedicated scanning software for Vista.

However, I did check about half a dozen other items I have, including a Hauppage T-500 pci tuner card and a Creative Extreme Audio X-Fi sound card, and they were all compatible

That's very interesting as i have been thinking of upgrading to vista.
I've been given the Full Home Edition by a friend.
I think my Acer TravelMate2200 may be to old for Vista.

I found them under Seiko Epson And my ancient Epson printer isn't listed but I've managed to get it working on Vista after a lot of jiggery pokery.
