Windows 7: Negative Scanner Not Working

Negative Scanner Not Working

I have a scanner for scanning film negatives which worked really well with Vista 32 bit but I have been unable to get it working with Windows 7 64 bit.

It is made by a company called Fujitac (who don't seem to have a website anymore) but it uses OVT Scanner drivers. Initially Win 7 didn't recognise it but after loading the drivers from the original CD it seems to be recogised. The driver version is Omnivision 5.2.5500.35 from 29 Jul 07 and I have no idea where to get a later version.

The scanner came with Photo Impression 6 software. When I go "Acquire from Scanner" it brings up the capture window but it remains blank and never shows an image of the negative that I wish to scan.

Any ideas would be gratefully received - I've wasted too much time on this already

Hello paust,

Welcome to 7 Forums.

Have you tried installing/running in Compatibility Mode.

Hope this helps.

Hi Gary

I have tried running the software in compatibility mode but it didn't work. I think the driver is the problem but I am not sure where to get a more recent driver.
