You will have to try to find an imaging package that will let you select the
correct driver and device. Once you've done that, you should have no problem
with other packages, assuming it's what I think it is that is causing the
trouble.

Try accessing the _camera_ via the XP scanning/imaging software. If the
camera takes still pictures, the XP scanning package will let you pull
stills from it. You're in for a bit of messing around.

You may have to unplug the camera when you want to scan, as a last resort.
