    Hie - I've searched the net and am unable to find a D646U ex driver for vista. Feel like throwing out the vista OS and using the previous one as nearly my gadgets are uncompatabile, etc.



    Can Microsoft do something about this ?? Regards - philip

Using the Windows XP driver MAY work. However, the D646Uex is not officially supported in Windows Vista. There is apparently some functionality limitations that prevent it from being officially compatible.

Use your XP driver first to install the scanner, windows will install the driver. then appear message saying it won't start or something like that. ignore it, then open the device manager. you'll see the canoscan is marked...click it, then update the driver automatically using internet...

the driver will be updated then your scanner will work just fine. i just installed it in my vista SP1...works perfectly as it should

Canoscan D646U ex for vista not compatible...how do I make it comatible?

If Canon does not provide a drive for Vista, then you cannot use the scanner with your Vista system.

I had the same problem with certain hardware when I upgraded from Win98SE to XP Pro 64 bit. I set up my computer for dual booting so that I can run both Win98SE and XP Pro.

Eventually I purchased compatible hardware however.

Canoscan D646U ex not working on windows vista os

That is because their is no VISTA driver written for that model,because that model was not made for the VISTA OS. If you were told it would work,they were wrong. It is unlikely that CANON wil ever have a driver written for VISTA for an older model,but it could happen,especially if enough people wrote to ask for it?

Driver download

Dear Sami Kotaich,

unfortunately your Cannon has not released drivers for vista for this product.

I can give you one suggestion; connect your scanner with vista PC and atleast let it try to install necessary USB drivers. once it has been done you will see message your hardware installed or there was a problem installing drivers for your hardware and it may not work properly.

now leave scanner connected and go in start menu- programs- accessories- paint

once you are in paint click on File Menu then From Scanners or Cameras. if it does recognize and you get scan wizard then you will be able to use your scanner on vista. but if it doesn't recognize then I am sorry you might need to get more authentic recommendation from Cannon support.

let me know does it work or not? or if any more questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Many Thanks.

AJoshi
