Dear Sir(s)

I am currently considering buying a Kodak DC20/DC25 digital camera for my
computer. However, I am running the Windows NT 4.0 Workstation OS, and I
was wondering if there are any drivers available for this particular device
for this platform which have been proven to work?

As far as I know, they use Win3.1/Win95 TWAIN compliant serial port drivers
- which is a bit unusual? instead of the usual SCSI type interface...??? I
don't think these will work because NT is notoriously protective about
system resources and will not allow any driver to access devices such as
the comm ports...

Is there a version of these drivers written specifically in the miniport
format for the NT 4.0 platform?

This is obviously a keystone deciding factor for whether I purchase it or
not.

There is no mention of whether kodak supports NT 4.0 with its digital
cameras or not.

Many thanks in advance for any information that you can volunteer.

I look forward to your prompt reply(ies)

Yours faithfully;





Chris


P.S. Again, since I cannot always check these newsgroups, I was wondering
if I could trouble you to reply directly to my email address below as well
if you are posting any replies so that I can reach you more easily :) Once
again, many thanks in advance.
