I have an HP Laptop with Vista Home Premium Installed. To do quick scans of bills, invoices, statements, etc. I prefer to use Irfanview ver 4.0. When I try to use the aquire function only the WIA driver is shown, not the TWAIN driver. The WIA driver works fine, however the settings are extremely limited. Of all the image editing programs on my PC only MS Publisher 2007 displays the TWAIN driver in a dropdown listbox, so I know its installed and working.<br />

I've downloaded the latest Vista drivers from Canon's web site and uninstalled, reinstalled to no avail. I've used this scanner on a desktop PC with Vista beta 2 and RC1 without problems.

A peripheral device is defined as a computer device, such as a keyboard or printer, that is not part of the essential computer (i.e., the memory and microprocessor). These auxiliary devices are intended to be connected to the computer and used in conjunction with it. Examples of external peripherals include mouse, keyboard, printer, monitor, external Zip drive or scanner, while internal peripherals include CD-ROM drive, CD-R drive or internal modem. Today's new devices, such as tablets, smartphones and wearable computing devices are considered peripherals as they can be connected and used on a computer system. The difference, however, is that these devices can run independently of the computer system.

System Utilities are a type of system software used to support the computer infrastructure, distinguishing it from application software which is aimed at directly performing tasks that benefit ordinary users.

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
