About 4 years ago I purchased a FS-C1-VP slide scanner. Computer crashed. Now the software is not compatible with Windows7. What can I do?

With my dealings with VuPoint scanners I would suggest you throw it away and buy a better one (more money, but worth it) that has a driver for Windows7or8. Quality copies were rare with my VuPoint.

I also have had two VuPoint FSt-C1-VP Film and Slide Digital Converters. The first one quit, so I got a second because I still had slides to copy. I have been able to use it with Windows 7 with Google's Picasa, their free Photo program. You can download it from Google. In Picasa, I select the import tab. Then select the OVT Scanner. It is the the generic TWAIN driver that Picasa uses for scanners and it seems to work with the VuPoint.

Honestly I think this scanner is a pain! I ended up buying an Epson scanner for photos and love it. I went through 2 of the slide scanners. Both doors to the device broke so light leaked out. The Epson scanner is very reliable and costs about $80-100.

i do not know. i used the disc that came with and could not get it work on either of my computers. I tried the online software and could not get it to work either. I was able to see the scanners control panel but the controls would not respond. I did not bother to research because my problem may have been the pin cord, I bought a cheap one. my recommendation is to use the high dollar pin connector to usb. Radio shack has one for around 60 bucks

I'm sorry - I'm using Windows 7, so I don't know. But I really thought the scanner did a good job and was exactly what I wanted. Hope someone else can answer your question.

It works fine with PP12 under Vista x32. However, I cannot get Windows 7 x64 to "see" the ScanSnap.

I "use" mine with Windows 7 Ultimate. The software is terrible. I have owned 2 previous HP and EPSON scanners that worked well until they quit. This Mustek A3 2400S scanner is awful. Everything from the software to the misaligned scanning makes buying this scanner a poor buy. AVOID IT

I am successfully running mine under both winXP and win8. I'm using viewscan as my scanning program. I don't like the one that came with the scanner, but that's personal-- I've been using viewscan since 1998!

umh... I'm not sure. I use windows 7 and I have no problems.you can try and download the software from the canon site and see if it works there, though it should.the scanner alone should work, since it installs the driver once you plug it in to the pc. After that you can use any scanning softwares, or programs that allow to import images via scan.good luck o>

Premsysl B., I'm having the same exact issues. It worked the first time I plugged it in but the system won't allow me to access and files on a blue-ray disk any longer. There seems to be no driver available for it to match Win 8. I used it several times in Win 7 and now that system won't recognize it either. I'm thinking the unit has a flaw of some kind. Too bad Rosewill, Samsung, or Panasonic (all attached to this make) won't post a fix.

Yes, it works on Windows 7. The unit itself has a USB for your computer, you install the software and then connect the scanner. I recommend this, it worked great with my negatives and the slides.

In Windows 7 go to fax and scan or type in scan. "might work on vista too"Insert paper image down and follow on screen directions.Button mashing is always an option but as this printer is pretty outdated buttons on it never worked for me.Any decent photo editor should give you the option.If none of this works turn it off and on and check your drivers.

Sorry don't really, know. What I do know is that after initally working with windows xp, the software started using the laptops built in camera as the video source rather than the inspection camera. As of yet I have not been able to make it go back to the inspection camera. While it worked it worked well, other than it is a little floppy, so when you put it in a small hole, it is somewhat hard to control direction.

Sorry that I can't help you. I am very happy with my Scan Snap S1500 and the new software that I downloaded when I changed my PC from XP to Windows 7. I gave up on Rack 2 Filer within a few months of purchasing it. The quality of the charaters in the displayed text was very bad. I tried to find some technical support on the Internet but couldn't find anything. I guess that Fujitsu knew that they had a bad product and decided to hide. I suggest that you give up on it and just use the SnapScan.

We have win7. We have a very simple laptop and have had no real problems with using the scanner. When scanning in a smaller receipt, I just had to be careful in feeding it in to keep it straight. We love the portability of the scanner and very pleased.

I use the software I already had installs on my widows conputer. The software is Microsoft Image Viewer, or something along those lines. I click import from scanner, and the printer/scanner is read.. So find some scanning software on your device, and look for the printer icon and scan, hope it helps!

The scanner works OK on Windows 7. Unfortunately the software does not. Scansnap Organizer is extremely slow and freezes up often. When trying to move a newly scanned document to another folder within SS Organizer it just stops and freezes for as long as three minutes before completing the move; sometimes it never does move the doc and I have to use End Process in the task manager to close it. I'm (trying to) running a Scansnap S300 on Windows 7 Home Premium, latest software, firmware, and drivers.I'm looking to replace it now.Jim

I had the same problem. They said go into REG EDIT and delete anything in the registry to do with Neat. That worked as far as installing the program so I could open it on my screen. But the scanner itself hasn't worked yet. It's telling me no drivers loaded. That's where I am right now. I've been messing with this for almost a week now! I really wanted this...was all excited to ditch tons of paper. Now I'm pretty much ready to give up and return it.
