Minolta Scan 5400 problems.

Hi all,

Just got a Minolta Scan 5400 film scanner, but I'm having problems getting it set up. I follow the software install instructions no problem, but when I come to load up the Minolta Scan utility software, it doesn't recognise the scanner and eventually comes up with an error wondow:

"Error = 4
Could not confirm scanner connection. Please check scanner connection."

Now this is with version 1.1.2 of the software that came with the scanner, but it also happens with version 1.1.5 that I downloaded from the website. It's not the USB cable or anything, as it's all being recognised under Windows XP's Device manager, and it says it's working properly.

Looking at the net there have been quite a few other who've suffered this problem, but I can't find a solution anywhere. This is my first port of call before I head off to Minolta.

Anyone got a 5400 who can give me a few pointers?
