Canon Scanner

[craft1948]

I have been given a Canon CanoScan LiDE 25/LiDE 60 scanner but without the installation disc.
Can someone tell me if this is compatible with 32 bit Windows 7..............I've tried a few sites to try and download the drivers etc but can only find it for Windows 7 64 bit.

I downloaded that chuck but when I tried to run it I got a message saying there were no drivers :-( I know I'm thick...........

Try here, get the TWAIN driver.

Thanks Chuck..............I de-installed it and went back to the first link, and this time it seems to have worked so I'll have a play now (this should be good without any instructions)
Thanks also 4get....

You should be ok with those 32Bit drivers tho!

64 Bit drivers ..
None of them will/or can be made to work with Lide80 on Windows7 64Bit .. unfortunately.
Shame ... Great Scanner.
