I have this odd problem. I bought a Epson 4990 PHOTO (refurb) and installed updated drivers (that are Vista compatible) and in no time was scanning away and just got back my first batch of prints from West Coast Imaging. I haven't touched the scanner for a month or so and today my wife asks me to scan a bunch of negatives from her childhood. I go to switch on the scanner and get the dreaded "Unrecognized USB device" message. It seems the scanner powers up properly, and that the cables are ok. I've noticed that there is no "Imaging Devices" underneath my Device Manager window (that's odd right?) and I've even tried deleting any unknown USB devices from my the device manager and rebooting. All to no avail. I still can't scan. Any ideas?
