I am installing my Brother wireless printer (MFC-495CW) and I encountered the
following "Files Needed" pop up window. "The file 'serscan.sys' on Windows XP
Home Edition CD-ROM is needed'. Type the path where the file is located and
then click OK"
I installed the OS CDROM that Dell gave me and nothing works. I also tried
to find the file itself in the C drive under C:\\Windows\Driver Cache|I386
and still nothing. Does anyone know where I can this file?
Thanks

Look on your Dell CD and see if there is an \i386 folder or a file named
Driver.cab. It's in that cab file. You can double-click on the cab to open
it, then right click on the file you want and pick Extract, then pick the
folder you want to extract it to.
