I need some photo scanning software

[BWR1953]

I have several hundred old school hardcopy photos which I need to digitize. I received my new scanner yesterday and got it up and running this morning.

I've spent quite a bit of time today trying to find software which will capture the photos and auto-split and auto-correct multiple pix from one scan into multiple files.

I found one (ScanSpeeder) which worked well for capturing the images and it does have auto-correct, but that function was a bit exuberant and overdid it. I couldn't find a way to adjust the auto-correct software and don't want to pay money for software that's "almost" good enough, so have been continuing my search.

The web comes up with a zillion sites which are merely promotion oriented and not very helpful.

Anyone use a product like I'm searching for?

My old HP All-In-One came with software like you describe, but it died on me and the new HP All-in-One that I have is not as good and won't do multiple pics at a time.

my old 1993 XP pro machine had such software as part of the bundle with the scanner, the old Kodak software that was on the machine would do similar photo manipulation. however havent seen anything in years that is inexpensive and works.

Im following along as I have about 2000 photographs of dads I want to scan

I ended up using the ScanSpeeder free trial version for the couple dozen pix I had to have for tomorrow. It works really well at detecting and splitting the images. I had as many as 6 on the flatbed scanner at the same time and it found all of them.

The Auto-Splitter software also worked well on separating the images but the color correction wasn't as good. The free version had giant watermarks too.
