Problem while installing driver for BearPaw 1200cu

I've unzipped XPDriver.exe to \windows\temp under win XP. I go to Add Hardware (scanner is either connected or disconnected - tried both), and i put the location \windows\temp in the field "include this location in the search".
I get always the message "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software".
I tried many things which i found in the web (including the modification of ps1usd.inf), but nothing helps.
Everything i did is according to mustek installation guide in the web.
Thanks in advance to whom may solve for me this problem.

This scanner was designed for 95/8/ME - operating systems
The processor in the scanner is driven by DOS commands from the computer.
Your computer is XP which is NTFS system.
When the changer overcame Mustek and other posted cludges that were supposed to convert DOS to NTFS - none worked.
You have one last chance.
Go to My computer /programs/accessories/Program Compatibility Wizard- and rest the system to run as Win 98 for the Mustek software.
If that does not work - New scanner.

I have a bearpaw 1200cu scanner but cannot find the disk. How can I enable this device to work on my new computer?

Go to Mustek's homepage and download drivers for your OS. The most up-to-date drivers are on http://www.mustek.de but the site seems down at the moment. Wait a couple of days and try again.

Packard bell branded Mustek Be@arpaw 1200CU+ scanner

FIRST and most important - uninstall any other attempts at scanner software using the control panel and add/remove software.
THen download and run this file: ftp://ftp.mustek.com.tw/pub/driver/BearPaw/1200CUPLUS/Windows/PS1G_WEB.exe

This works for my Packard Bell branded Mustek Bearpaw 1200CU+ scanner under XP Pro SP3.

On the same site Mustek also have Vista drivers available!!!!!
