Canoscan 3000ex Drivers Windows 10 64 Bit
I realise that the Canon N670U scanner is not supported by Canon, but according to the Canon Website, the LiDe 20 scanner is. Up until now, both scanners used the same driver, so it seems strange that one is supported and the other is not. However, though Canon says new drivers will be on the website for the release of Windows 7, none has appeared yet. Can anyone explain this.
As an aside, I can get the scanner to work using Vuescan, but the cost of buying this utility and being tied to the supplier, compared with simply buying a new scanner is not worth it. It does prove, though that a N670U can work in a Windows 7 64 bit environment. You can use the same driver as the LiDe 20 or several others that work in Win7 but you can't run the setup program to install it. You will have to both manually extract the driver from the Canon supplied.exe and choose the driver to be installed manually. Use 7Zip to get inside the.exe and then again inside one of the other folders. Put that driver directory aside.
Then take your unidentified device and go through the process of manually choosing a driver for which you have the discs and for which Windows doesn't agree you are using the right driver. It will work fine. I tried that a few weeks ago after reading another forum, and even though I installed the driver, and could see the device as supposedly working in control panel, it still did not work.
I have now bought a new Lide 100 off Ebay for £22. No point wasting time messing with drivers when a new working replacement is so cheap.

There is no 64-bit driver posted for the LiDe 20 so what leads you to believe the N670U can work in Win 7 x64? The 32-bit driver does state it is for both scanners, including for Win 7. Recently upgraded to Win7 Professional (64-bit version) and decided to try installing my Canon CanoScan N670U scanner in XP mode (Windows XP operating as a virtual PC within Windows 7).
Using the standard Windows XP driver for this scanner on the Canon website, the scanner is fully functional! No need for Vuescan or any other third-party app. So if you have a qualifying version of Windows 7 (Pro and Ultimate, but not Home or Home Premium), and a PC that supports virtual systems, you can resurrect your scanner using XP drivers.
In my experience, 64-bit is no longer a barrier. The downside (if you can call it that) is that you'll have to install your imaging applications within Windows XP.

Considering I now have my scanner back, this is a very minor inconvenience that I'm willing to tolerate. I had the sme problem with an old Canon Scanner - much older than yours in fact: CanoScan D646U (which I managed to get working with Win 7 x86 but no luck with x64). VMware Player worked like a charm - v easy to install an older version of Windows in a virual environment, install yr scanner software there and scan from there, either using the defult Windows imaging/fax and scan program or the software that came with yr scanner.

Or a third-party imaging app like photoshop which also needs to be instaled within the virtul environment. Other choices would be Windows Virtual PC or VirtualBox (open-source I gather). I was just about to buy a new scanner but now I don't have to:-).
