My old Canonscan N670U appears to have correctly installed in my Vista laptop after downloading the Vista driver from the Canon website. It appears in order under System Drivers but, in the Scanners and Cameras section in Control Panel, it is not recognised under the 'scanner profiles' tab, but it is recognised under the 'properties' tab where it is succesfully accessed and operated by the 'test' command. However, when I try to access the scanner from imaging programs, 'Paint' and 'picture Gallery', they fail to 'see' it. I'd be grateful for any thoughts please. Thanks. Tony
