I've been using the HP PhotoSmart All-in-One for four years or so (I'm
surprised they still sell the cartridge for it) and never had that
sort of problem (and didn't have the default-reset problem until I
moved to the Windows 7 laptop).

to Windows 7 on my desktop, perhaps I'll luck out and find that a W7 driver
is not available for that scanner, giving me the excuse to get a new one.
g What really drives me crazy about it is that the underside of the glass
is kind of fogged, and although I've removed the glass and cleaned it,
everything I do just seems to make the situation worse. Amazingly, it
doesn't seem to affect the scan quality noticeably, but it still bugs me.

I avoid them, discouraged by all the stories I read here and in the
Microsoft forums. :-)
I did purchase an HP scanner the other year, and I had a lot of trouble
with the driver, which kept reporting that a file was missing. An update
improved the situation, but I finally decided to get rid of the scanner
anyway.

I've had nothing but HP printers and no problems printing from any MS
programs. But I guess I've just been lucky.

Good point. HP does complicate matters, and for some reason there
drivers never seem to work well with Microsoft products...
Obviously I meant to write THEIR drivers, not "there."
