BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Please make sure of the following before you begin installation:
■ The information in this guide may cover software not provided
with the scanner you purchased. Disregard any information about
the software not applicable to your chosen product. Please visit our
web site at www.visioneer.com for the latest software updates for
your Visioneer Patriot 680 scanner.
■ If your computer has AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software running,
you may see messages during installation asking you to allow the
installation to proceed. Although the messages will differ based on
the software your computer is running, in each case you should
allow the installation to proceed. Alternatively, you can turn off the
AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software before installing your scanner,
but if you do, make sure to turn it back on again when installation
is finished.
■ If you already have a scanner connected to your computer, you need
to remove its driver programs first before beginning the installation
of your Visioneer Patriot 680 scanner. Please see “Uninstalling Your
Scanner” on page 143 for basic instructions, or see the User’s Guide
that you received with your other scanner for specific instructions.
