Default cannot install Epson Stylus scanner driver *error code 39*

The WIA was already set as "Automatic" and "Started". Thx for your reply.

In the Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services, what is the WIA
(Windows Image Acquisition) set as.... Manual, Automatic or Disabled? If
Automatic, is it started?

Yes i did check to make sure i had the latest software package from Epson
I even tried installing the drivers on a friend's laptop and it worked.
So the problem must be local to my Windows XP environment.
Is there any way i can check to make sure my system is not corrupted ?
Its just too weird that it allows me to install the printer driver, the
fax
driver
but not the scanner driver ......thx a bunch for your effort(s)

There is nothing different in Media Center Edition than Home or Pro in
regards to installing hardware.

i have an ES CX9400Fax Series All-In-One. I'm able to install the
printer
and fax drivers, but not the scanner driver...i get the following
message
in
device driver.

**Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver
may
be
corupted or missing. (Code 39) **

I had the same issue with a Canon MX300 and returned it thinking that
it
was a
corrupted driver from the manufacturer.

Now i realize it has something to do with my Windows XP media center
edition
How do i check and fix the problem ?
