If you have 32-bit Windows 7, download Scangear CS from your regional Canon site.
If you have 64-bit Windows 7 there is no driver and you need a new scanner unless you have Professional or Ultimate when you can install the 32-bit XP scanner driver in XP Mode.

At a quick glance t looks like driver support stops at Windows XP.
How old is this scanner? Have you checked for compatibility with Windows 7?
Compatibility centre says it is! http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-gb/Search.aspx?l=en-gb&type=Hardware&s=Canon%20CanoScan%20Lide%2070
Canon have released CS drivers for win 7 32 & 64 and win 8 - incase someone stumbles upon this http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010402.asp
I have downloaded this driver and Vue Scan and still cannot access my scanner! Please help. Windows 8.1, 32bit
This answer is inaccurate. Canon released a Windows 7 x64 driver for this product in 2009. That same driver works in Windows 8.1 also currently.
