What do people think about the usability of this on an older PC?

My desktop is an Athlon XP (OC'd to 2Ghz) with 1GB of RAM and a Radeon 9800 Pro. I'm still rocking Windows XP and it works fine for my purposes. I don't play many new games - C&C3 Red Alert worked fine though if I played with the settings a bit.

I tried out Irfanview, but it wasn't quite what I wanted either.

I'm looking for something that lets me bypass this interface entirely:

So that for each picture I literally just have to load it into the scanner and press a button. Even in Irfanview's "batch scanning mode" (which is admittedly handy for automatically saving the photos to a specified folder), it still makes me preview the image, set the size, and set the DPI every time.

I think on some scanners that's what the TWAIN driver looks like, so regardless of application you get the same thing in the end. You may need a scanner better suited for bulk scanning.
