Ian, 

If you haven't already you may want to read this FAQ: 

Donald Gruener "7.1 - PageMaker 6.5 on Windows 2000, XP, ME" 1/25/02 8:52am </cgi-bin/webx?50@@.ef65200/0> 

I don't see any reason not to stay with XP. Your best bet would probably be to upgrade PM to 7.01 - it's only $80 - but if you absolutely don't want to, read and follow Peter Linnell's advice in the article you'll find a link to in that FAQ. 

As for your scanner, I should think you could get an updated driver from the mfg's website. I recently moved from Win98SE to Win2000 and had to track down and install new drivers for virtually all of my hardware, including my printers and video card...I think that just goes with the territory... 

Good luck, and welcome to this forum. Stop by anytime... 

Donald
