Re: Driver for Scanner Canon USB 650U

Markus,

Give it a shot. If Windows XP x64 doesn't automatically pick it up, you
can always try decorating the existing 32-bit drivers for installation
on x64. For more information, visit

You cannot decorate a driver inf file for x64 if you do not have the x64
driver files themselves. You cannot load a 32-bit driver to the 64-bit OS.
Decoration allows you to have an info that installs the right driver for the
right platform from one inf. It does not let you load an incorrect driver
to another OS

Mike,

Not all "drivers" contain kernel-mode drivers, hence why I suggested he
try. He could very well be successful.
