RE: driver for scanner

amanisti,

Check out the following site. The site sells scanner drivers/software for
Vista. I didn't check whether they offer any for your particular scanner:

http://hamrick.com/

They claim to have drivers/software for over 700 scanners.

Re: driver for scanner

Unfortunately there isn't one for the 64 bit version of Vista. As you will
also notice, there is nothing for XP x64 either. At this stage of the Vista
release, Canon probably won't be adding them either..... so you have a
choice of either installing the 32 bit version of Vista or getting a new
scanner. Personally I'd go with the former version since I also have the
LiDE 80 and it's an awesome scanner.

Scanning in 64 bit versions of Windows is a rarely supported feature. ALL
drivers in 64 bit MUST be digitally signed, and companies just don't seem to
want to get this certification. And of course our scanner is discontinued.
