In lou of actually solving the conflicts problem, i.e. perhaps HP's MAC software just sucks (just like mircrotek) there is a very nice scanning utility called VUESCAN that is free and can handle many types of scanners. Their website says they support the 5300c. Check it out at <a href="http://www.hamrick.com/" rel="ugc">http://www.hamrick.com/</a>

I upgraded to HP PrecisionScan Pro 3.1 via download. &nbsp;Now when I start my G4, the computer locks up when it gets to the desktop. &nbsp;When I disabled the HP extensions: &nbsp;TWAIN 1.7 and HP ScanJet Manager, then my machine works fine. &nbsp;Those two lock up my machine.<br />
<br />
If I use the installer and re-install the HP software and do not restart the computer, then I can scan. &nbsp;But a restart kills my machine.<br />
<br />
Any suggestions as to how to do this so things work how they are supposed to?<br />
<br />
I have a G4, 576 mb, OS 9.2.2, and a USB HP ScanJet 5300.<br />
