Umax Astra 1220U XP.txt Driver File Contents (UmaxAstra1220UXP.zip)

 I bought a 1220U for 50 cents today with no power supply, no USB cable and no driver disk.  I went to Umax.com and they wanted $14.50 for drivers.  This made me so mad I was about to email them and assure them that I would never buy another Umax product even for 50 cents!!!  Then, Umax UK showed up in my search and guess what?  At Umax UK the same drivers are free for download!!!!!  Now, that really made me mad as I feel like they should treat all customers the same at the least.  Anyway, I hope you didn't sell yours because here is your link and it works good!!!
    Install the big one first, then reboot, then the little XP update and you'll be really happy!  Burn them off to because if they figure this out then we could end up in this boat again!

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

  • Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

  • If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.

  • Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
