My engineer tells me that I am going to have to part with my beloved HP II-CX scanner because the new motherboard will not support the ISA card required to run it.

It's just a SCSI card. You should be able to get a SCSI card for your new PC without much problem. I'm assuming it's one of those 25-pin connectors (looks like a parallel port). You'll need an adapter, but that's not a huge deal.

What may be a huge deal is getting it to work under Vista. I have no experience, but my understanding is that the whole scanner subsystem has been changed dramatically. It might work easily, or it might never work at all.
