| 267846 | 2004-09-04 06:15:00 | Hi Ladybug, as a side note to what Spacemanz and GF have said. I have had similar scanner probs with my Acer S2W 4300U, eventually getting it replaced. I believe, however, my probs with it stemmed from a puny wee power supply cord, which were causing probs, as well as the shop said there was a problem with the glass top. Anyway if you have the same kind of cord you will know if thats the problem, as you won't get power, but if you move the cord around a bit (mine was very flimsy, so it was easy to see why it would cause faults, {thats my opinion anyway} :)), you will get power again. Anyway I would try a new power pack/cord first as suggested perhaps :-) |

| 267847 | 2004-09-04 06:26:00 | Hi J Zep I will have a fiddle with the cords. I have taken it out of the back at put back in but not actually out the back of the scanner. I have talked to someone today they said it was possibly something lol I cant remember what he said it was called but would be about $65 for the part and of course labour on top of that or maybe its the bulb. He didnt actually look at the machine he is just going by what I told him happened. I am still in 2 minds as to if I take to the shop to have someone look at or just go ahead and purchase another. Can I be nosy and ask what you replaced yours with??? Thanks Bug :) |

| 267848 | 2004-09-04 11:13:00 | >Can I be nosy and ask what you replaced yours with??? Of course you can :-). Actually i should have been a bit clearer... My original scanner was the same model and after a year plus of problems i.e in and out of shop, supposedly being repaired, it was still acting up. It was under warranty though and they ended up giving me a replacement, which is what i have now, the same Model: Acer S2W 4300U. I haven't had any problems with this one, however i don't use it a heck of a lot really, but notice on the odd occasion i will have to move the power cord or plug it in again, presumably cause its packed away in between use now and the cord can easily get misshapen (once again it has the very thin/flimsy power cord), which i personally feel is the problem... |
