Acer Scanprisa 640U : how to work under Windows 7, 64-bits
I have an Acer Scanprisa 640U scanner that worked under Windows xp using Mirascan 4.03. I now want to use the scanner under Windows 7, 64-bits, but although the program installed it gives me each time "Scanner is not found"

2014-01-05T05:14:50+00:00 I have the same problem. I've installed the trial version of VueScan and it scan perfectly. Device manager is showing the scanner as it is (Acer/Benq 3300/4300). But when i tried using MIraScan 4.03 it could not locate the scanner therefore I had to abort. How do rectify the problem?
I runnig Win 7 Ultimate 64

2012-03-24T20:45:31+00:00 Thanks for your answer. I will check with Benq, which seems to have adopted this product, to see if they have produced a 64-bit Win 7 driver. I found a driver for using this scanner with the 32-bit version of Win 7.
