I Need to Download a CanonScan Lide 70 Drive for Windows 7 Ultimate What Version Should I Download?

windows 7 ultimate


I’m confused as of what version I could download. My only options that I can find are for downloading Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Vista.

I have a pc, and recently using Windows 7 Ultimate, beta version?
I need a drive/software compatible to use with CanonScan Lide 70 and my pc, to scan work.

    There aren’t any drivers for Windows 7 yet because it is still very new.
    I believe they have yet to release the non-beta version of it yet.

    You can try the XP or Vista drivers, but they may not work.
    Windows 7 is still fairly new.

    Generally speaking, Vista drivers will work on Windows 7 and that’s what you should try to use if nothing shows up automatically via Windows Update. (You’d have to turn on the scanner and let Windows recognize it before running Windows Update or else it doesn’t know it’s there.)

    My own Canon scanner actually isn’t working happily with Windows 7 right now though, including via Vista drivers. Canon has indicated they’ll release compatible drivers for everything when the final version of Windows 7 is formally released to the public.

    You may or may not get lucky and have Vista drivers work for you. They work fine for just about every other piece of hardware, as is to be expected.

    If you can get drivers installed but can’t get the scanner to work with software like Photoshop, you should be able to get it to work indirectly by using Canon’s own Canoscan Toolbox software.
