A customer has an old W95b 8215 Pavilion with a ScanTak SF-600C scanner
attached to an ISA card.  The ISA card is a 'SPOT' brand (apparently long
defunct) and is labelled 'scanner interface'.

The Pavilions' hard drive was clapped out and unrecoverable, and I've
programmed a new drive, using her HP recovery CD.

However, the scanner wasn't part of the original equipment, so it didn't get
re-installed off the CD, along with her sound, gfx and modem cards.

Can anyone help with a driver or installer for the 'scanner interface' card?
I've managed to download several drivers for the scanner itself, but without
the ISA card being recognised, there's no way the scanner is going to run. I
understand from the scanner manual that the interface setup originally came
on a diskette.

TIA
