Canon LIDE 25 TWAIN Problems

Hi Everyone;

I hope someone can help me out. I have a Canon LIDE 25 scanner that I
am trying to get to work with Vista.
Canon has Vista 32-bit drivers posted on their website. I tried
installing these drivers and the Canoscan software, but I am getting
error messages.


Firstly, the scanner is not showing as listed in the Canoscan
application - where you select what scanner you have.


Secondly, I keep getting a "TWAIN" error. I believe it says "no TWAIN
source detected.


I though I had everything installed right. There is a "WIA" driver
from Canon that doesn't seem to install at all.
I did have the scanner running for a while, the first time I
installed
it, but ever since I rebooted it gives me the two errors above.


I hope that someone here has also installed a newer Canon scanner and
has worked this problem out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks!
 
With Canon scanners, you MUST install the software before the device is
connected. Disconnect the scanner, download and run the Uninstall utility
from Canon's website.... now follow their instructions and install the
software.... then connect the scanner when the software asks you to do so.

Thanks will try. It was working last night, actually, but not through
CanoScan.
 
I have this scanner and have run it it Vista 32 and 64. You can only run
one of the two drivers. TWAIN or WIA but not both. I use it in Acrobat pro
just fine and I can even invoke the native format quite nicely for added
features and options.

IE - TWAIN for Acrobat and WIA for FAX & Scan but not both.
