HP Scanjet 5400c problems

I tried the suggestions given here, but it still won't work! First,
while installing the software, I get an error message that on DLL can
not be registered. I choose the option Ignore and the installation
finishes in a normal way. When starting the program, it starts normally,
but gives me the following error message: Sorry, scanner could not be
initialized /scanner not found/

I think the main problem is, that the PC can not recognize/install the
scanner. When I connect the USB, the PC detects a new hardware, tries to
install, searches for drivers in the net, also I have tried pointing to
the folder with the HP program - but in the end the new hardware can not
be installed.

So... what to do, how can I make it run? Thanks!

I dont believe HP has released a Vista driver for this printer.
You could try this program, the trial, and see if it works, before you buy
