if you put the installation cd in the drive and then if it autostarts close it down, then go to device manager and the properties of the scanner and update driver let pc search automatically and it should reinstall it and then all should be fine i hope , had the same problem on my all in one device

I had the same problem with my MP180, and it worked out when I tried a different USB port in my computer. I also read elsewhere that a good quality high speed USB cable would also eliminate this problem.
