I have a windows 7 computer - new spring 2010. A year ago I loaded the HP Scanjet 4370 (XP 64 bit) version of the softare. I used the "Compatability for programs writen for older OS versions" procedures" available under the control panel of windows 7. Loaded fine a year ago - same computer.. Now I need to reload it and it won''t load. Please advise.

    I think there is a missunderstanding. THis is not a printer - it is an HP image scanner,.

    Doesn't this make a difference:

    Just tried that . There are no search items under qpedit.msc

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    actually there is no search item under gpedit..msc

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    actually I did type gpedit.msc but there is nothing even under just "gp" let alone the whole word.

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    also under just the "msc" seaerch there is only the task scheduler.

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    I am giving it a try as we speak. Will let you know.

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    well, I donwloaded it - took about a second and I loaded it. It didn't fix anything and took a couple of seconds to install. did you notice it's title was laserjet rather than scanjet.

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    Well it doesn't work like it is supposed to with all of the features it had . But it kinda sorta works and after spending $7.00 at WalGrens to scan one picture it is better then nothing.

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    I will try some of these solutions also unless I already have.

  • milanbloom Apr 11, 2011

    Yes. Better than HP zero help. They wanted $39.00 for nothing.

  • milanbloom Apr 13, 2011

    I down loaded the Scanjet G3010 W7 software. My model 4370 works fine now. The software even knows it is a 4370 scanner. Sham on HP for keeping that solution a secreat. I would have update the "article" referenced above but don't know how. Per that "artcle" I wasn't the first to use this solution.

Hp scanjet 4570c + windows 7

Download Windows Vista version (32 bit or 64 bit) depending on your Windows 7/8.0/8.1 (32 bit or 64 bit) from: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=77368&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us
Then, extract the file that you download "setup_basic_4500_500.exe" using WinRAR to Desktop.
Next, go to Control Panel then Device Manager. You will see the scanner "hp" under Other devices with error. Right click on it then select update driver software. Select Browse my computer for driver software. Click Browse and point it to the folder on your desktop that contains extracted files. You can make sure to check on include subfolders.
That will install the driver perfectly fine under windows 8.1 in my case 64 bit.
