Looking through this forum I see many folks in a similar situation. Canon has declined driver support for Windows 7 on the D1230U. They offered a 10% discount on a new model however this one scans large format. My dad likes this scanner as he needs to scan larger that 35mm and am trying to help him.
I was sondering if anyone had come up with a soluton for this model. I tried Vuescan but they don't support the D1230U.

Pebbly,
The 6.1.1c driver I found on Canon's website. That one was a zip file and all attmepts to install show it as a 32-bit driver I am running 64-bit.
The Softpedia version is executable but compatibilty mode complains it too is 32-bit and refuses to run. Unless I am doing something wrong here. Seems I can't run 32-bit code on the 64-bit OS.

according to the info on the driver it is 32/64bit ,are you running compatibility in admin mode ?

I am having a similar problem on Windows 7 x32 with my Canonscan d1230U. I downloaded the recommended program (S1a7), then ran it to extract the files. There was no setup program to allow me to set up compatibility mode so I went into device manager and said I had a disk, then pointed it at the inf file, but it would not let me proceed. Have I missed something?
