I have a like new CanoScan D1250U2F that I used for scanning various
documents, photos and negatives. Bought a new Dell that came with
Windows 7 x64 and last night tried to hook the scanner up and could
not get it to install the drivers. I emailed Canon Tech Support and
they replied back today stating :

So is there any work-around or any way to run this scanner under
Windows 7 x64???? The scanner is like new and hate to think it's
trash because I bought a new computer.

Thanks for the suggestion. Going to try that out and it sounds like
that might be a good workaround for other things I'm having issues
with under Windows 7
